Since the instruction are to delete the u_pwd field, maybe someone already did that and you actually have some other problem? Did someone else already try to remedy the problem? Or are you actually editing root's profile? That wasn't what the suggestion said to do. There is no way to guess what file you are looking at from your post... maybe you have the wrong file entirely. Read "man 4 authcap". It is customary but not requred for u_pwd to be on a separate line, could that be the problem? Other than that, it beats me.
