I found temporary workaround- nscd daemon must be stopped. Anyway,
something very odd going on, i found, (nscd running) that not all
accounts was blocked?! some kind of timeout? 

in /var/log/messages- 
Nov 25 09:32:19 riffle unix_chkpwd[9614]: check pass; user unknown
Nov 25 09:32:19 riffle login(pam_unix)[9529]: authentication failure;
logname=LOGIN uid=0 euid=0 tty=tty3 ruser= rhost=
Nov 25 09:32:19 riffle login(pam_unix)[9529]: could not identify user
(from getpwnam(al))
Nov 25 09:32:19 riffle login[9529]: User not known to the underlying
authentication module


but in meantime finger shows user information for same user :)
after 'service nscd stop' user can login instantly...
