I've followed this tutorial (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto) and every step works fine (I can get tickets, authenticate, etc.) However, when I try to login either in KDM or over ssh it fails.
Trying via KDM seems to login (I don't get any password errors), but it then restarts X and dumps me straight back at the login prompt. The following entries show up from "last" and /var/log/auth.log:
last
tom.chan :0 Fri Jun 1 15:06 - 15:06 (00:00)
/var/log/auth.log
Jun 1 15:06:13 hotdesk3 pam_winbind[5904]: user 'tom.chance' granted access
Jun 1 15:06:13 hotdesk3 pam_winbind[5904]: user 'tom.chance' OK
Jun 1 15:06:13 hotdesk3 pam_winbind[5904]: user 'tom.chance' granted access
Jun 1 15:06:13 hotdesk3 kdm: :0[5904]: (pam_unix) session opened for user tom.chance by (uid=0)
Jun 1 15:06:13 hotdesk3 kdm: :0[5904]: (pam_unix) session closed for user tom.chance
Trying via ssh yields its own problems. I'm doing it with Putty from a Windows workstation, and it seems to login (I don't get a bad password error) but the connection is immediately closed. There is no entry in "last", but this shows up in auth.log:
Jun 1 15:17:58 hotdesk3 sshd[6474]: Accepted password for tom.chance from 192.168.0.64 port 2399 ssh2
Jun 1 15:17:58 hotdesk3 sshd[6476]: (pam_unix) session opened for user tom.chance by (uid=0)
Jun 1 15:17:58 hotdesk3 sshd[6474]: fatal: login_get_lastlog: Cannot find account for uid 507
Jun 1 15:17:58 hotdesk3 sshd[6474]: syslogin_perform_logout: logout() returned an error
Jun 1 15:17:58 hotdesk3 sshd[6476]: (pam_unix) session closed for user tom.chance
Has anyone got any suggestions?
