I believe it indicates that the login class, `C70609A' isn't in the
login capability database. If the ASCII source, `/etc/login.conf'
doesn't exist and you installed the sources, as root try

   cp /usr/src/etc/login.conf /etc/login.conf
   /usr/bin/cap_mk_db /etc/login.conf

If `/etc/login.cong' exists, as root try rebuilding the indexes with

   /usr/bin/cap_mk_db /etc/login.conf

which should create `/etc/login.conf.db'. See login.conf(5).
