Andy,
     
     Thanks for your prompt response.  All of my "guest" users have 
     /bin/false as the shell.  I can log in from my desktop as both of 
     these people.  They cannot log in as themselves from their desktop.

Just a guess, but you might make sure that all of your users' shells are 
listed in /etc/shells (i.e. if one or more of them are using tcsh, and 
tcsh isn't in /etc/shells, then it won't let them in).  It's a fairly 
common problem.
