Ok, empty passwords was just for testing, long term I would be satisfied
if it worked at all :^)

It's a self made system, so it could easily be that I forgot something.
Shadow is used, PAM not. Here are the relevant files: 

/etc/passwd: 
root:x:0:0:root:/:/bin/sh
custom:x:500:100:Rayonic Custom User:/home:/bin/sh

/etc/shadow:
root:SPoFKYqe5xgJc:0:0:99999:7:::
custom:zu.hbJ3nhIfqk:0:0:99999:7:::

/etc # ls -l passwd shadow
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root           77 Oct  5  2002 passwd
-rw-r-----    1 root     root           70 Jan  1 00:01 shadow

Shouldn't that be correct? What else do I need?
