Public bug reported: I've configured LDAP auth with sssd package and lightdm is not understanding policy messages.
when user password is expired it says "Password incorrect" and that's not true. in /var/log/auth.log it says: Jun 5 15:25:48 cprli0554 lightdm: pam_sss(lightdm:auth): received for user pepet6: 13 (User account has expired) also, when user is in "warning" state there's a message that appears for very short time in screen and user is not able not read it. again in /var/log/auth.log: Jun 5 15:28:50 cprli0554 lightdm: pam_sss(lightdm:auth): User info message: Your password will expire in 4 day(s). I'm planning a huge migration and these kind of bugs gives lot of confusion to users (so lot of tickets opened for support). ask for further info. # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 # apt-cache policy lightdm lightdm: Instaŀlat: 1.2.1-0ubuntu1 Candidat: 1.2.1-0ubuntu1 Taula de versió: *** 1.2.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: lightdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1009013 Title: incorrect password policy messages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1009013/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
