Public bug reported: I have two accounts on my machine. One account is the default account that was created when Ubuntu was installed. Other one is active directory account after joining the machine with the domain. I have setup the accounts so that both the accounts have sudo permissions.
Behavior I am observing is GUI based applications such as Ubuntu Software Center do not accept my active directory credentials when it asks me for the password. However from terminal prompt, it DOES accept the credentials. To illustrate me_default : Default account me_active : Active directory account. Currently logged in as me_active. On terminal prompt if I say sudo apt-get update, I get password prompt. I enter credentials for me_active and everything goes well. If I opem ubuntu software center, it also asks me for the password, if I enter credentials for me_active it fails even if I have logged in as me_active. If I enter credentials of me_default while logged in as me_active, it works.
