Hi Swen,
It seems that last time when you(or siteadmin)
were adding new user some error occurred.
Check your files /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow are alright.
Then look at in to locks directory /etc/locks/
If there are any files left, delete it all.
After deleting those files try add new user to the system.
