As I wrote, it’s passwd command for kokamoto

Sorry, however, if I could do it, I’ll never face this problem, I think.

or passwd.
I tried both.

is set but there are no aes keys set for the user yet!

Yes, I think this the problem I faqcing.
When I see /mnt/keys/kokamoto, there are several files, however,
Which file sizes are all zero.

>temporarily remove the -N flag from
/rc/bin/service.auth/tcp567

I tried this.
1) remove -N frag from /rc/bin/service.auth/tcp567
2) reboot the auth/file/cpu server
3) auth/changeuser comman for kokamoto
4) of course, now I can login from a terminal, I tested.
5) Now add -N flag on tcp567 above
6) reboot the auth/file/cpu server
7) tried to login myselef from a terminal
8) the terminal says
	….
	Post…
	!Adding key: dom=xxxxx proto=dp9ik
	User[kokamoto]
9) then, I input password of myself
10) CONGRATULATIONS!
	 yes, I can login to the terminal
11) However, when I see /mnt/keys/kokamoto on the auth server
	I see several files, however the sizes are all zero yet

Yes, your advice solved my problem, although I still have ? on (11).

Thanks a lot!
I can now work on my purpose.
