How did you add your users and set the empty passwords?  NetBSD
doesn't use /etc/passwd, and even /etc/master.passwd is not used
for authentication.  You'll have to use pwd_mkdb to create
/etc/spwd.db from /etc/master.passwd.

I would suggest starting with ssh public-key authentication, then
logging in, and then using the "passwd" command on the Dreamcast to
set your passwords.
