Account with conflicting name exists locally

Question

When I login to a Fedora box through ssh, i get the following error:

Account with conflicting name exists locally

Anyone know how I can get rid if this?? I think whatever issue that is, it's also keeping me from opening a Eclipse workspace i was working on before i lost network connectivity to this Fedora host.

Thanks in advanced
