This is a reproducible problem; all our systems are displaying the same symptoms. The systems are using Kerberos (Active Directory) for authentication, and NIS for account meta-data and authorisation (groups) A base installation is performed using the server 20.04 ISO image. No additional packages are selected. Post-install, I run: apt-get install tcsh nis krb5-user libpam-krb5 libnss-systemd I set up the NIS client (supply the default domain name, check ypbind is running and ypcat passwd is working) I then set up /etc/krb5.conf for kerberos authentication to a domain controller, confirm that kinit works and a kerberos ticket is issued. I modify /etc/passwd, /etc/group and /etc/shadow, appending a "+" to the end of each. /etc/nsswitch.conf is modified to support compat mode, as well as systemd: passwd: compat systemd group: compat systemd shadow: compat I can log in remotely via ssh using my NIS account and Kerberos credentials. MY NIS meta-data looks like: amcvey:KRB5:<UID>:<GID>:Andy McVey:/home/amcvey:/bin/tcsh (where UID and GID are replaced with values unique to the organisation) On login, the following occurs: hostname:~> systemctl --user Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory I put pam-systemd and systemd-logind into debug mode to get more information: Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname sshd[1210]: Accepted publickey for amcvey from [redact] port 58849 ssh2: RSA SHA256:[redact] Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname sshd[1210]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user amcvey by (uid=0) Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Got message type=method_call sender=:1.13 destination=org.freedesktop.login1 path=/org/freedesktop/login1 interface=org.freedesktop.login1.Manager member=CreateSession cookie=2 reply_cookie=0 signature=uusssssussbssa(sv) error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname sshd[1210]: pam_systemd(sshd:session): pam-systemd initializing Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Sent message type=method_call sender=n/a destination=org.freedesktop.DBus path=/org/freedesktop/DBus interface=org.freedesktop.DBus member=GetConnectionUnixUser cookie=40 reply_cookie=0 signature=s error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname sshd[1210]: pam_systemd(sshd:session): Asking logind to create session: uid=198083 pid=1210 service=sshd type=tty class=user desktop= seat= vtnr=0 tty= display= remote=yes remote_user= remote_host=10.105.121.110 Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Got message type=method_return sender=org.freedesktop.DBus destination=:1.6 path=n/a interface=n/a member=n/a cookie=13 reply_cookie=40 signature=u error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname sshd[1210]: pam_systemd(sshd:session): Session limits: memory_max=n/a tasks_max=n/a cpu_weight=n/a io_weight=n/a runtime_max_sec=n/a Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Sent message type=method_call sender=n/a destination=org.freedesktop.DBus path=/org/freedesktop/DBus interface=org.freedesktop.DBus member=GetConnectionUnixProcessID cookie=41 reply_cookie=0 signature=s error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname sshd[1210]: pam_systemd(sshd:session): Failed to create session: No such process Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Got message type=method_return sender=org.freedesktop.DBus destination=:1.6 path=n/a interface=n/a member=n/a cookie=14 reply_cookie=41 signature=u error-name=n/a error-message=n/a Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Unable to connect to /run/systemd/userdb/io.systemd.Multiplexer: No such file or directory Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: n/a: varlink: setting state idle-client Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: /run/systemd/userdb/io.systemd.DynamicUser: Sending message: {"method":"io.systemd.UserDatabase.GetUserRecord","parameters":{"uid":198083,"service":"io.systemd.DynamicUser"}} Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: /run/systemd/userdb/io.systemd.DynamicUser: varlink: changing state idle-client → awaiting-reply Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: /run/systemd/userdb/io.systemd.DynamicUser: New incoming message: {"error":"io.systemd.UserDatabase.NoRecordFound","parameters":{}} Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: /run/systemd/userdb/io.systemd.DynamicUser: varlink: changing state awaiting-reply → processing-reply Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Got lookup error: io.systemd.UserDatabase.NoRecordFound Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: /run/systemd/userdb/io.systemd.DynamicUser: varlink: changing state processing-reply → idle-client Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Sent message type=error sender=n/a destination=:1.13 path=n/a interface=n/a member=n/a cookie=42 reply_cookie=2 signature=s error-name=org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnixProcessIdUnknown error-message=No such process Feb 12 09:51:32 myhostname systemd-logind[903]: Failed to process message type=method_call sender=:1.13 destination=org.freedesktop.login1 path=/org/freedesktop/login1 interface=org.freedesktop.login1.Manager member=CreateSession cookie=2 reply_cookie=0 signature=uusssssussbssa(sv) error-name=n/a error-message=n/a: No such process So it seems logind is trying to get the PID of the calling (sshd?) process and failing.
