Problems with ldap authentication (gdm)

[Casper Pedersen]

Hi,

It looks like there is a bug in the authentication mechanism.

I use (or should say try) LDAP for authentication, and it works just
fine with ssh, local login, but it fails with gdm.

/var/log/messages
Jan 11 15:11:04 tuxdsk2 gdm(pam_unix)[7693]: check pass; user unknown
Jan 11 15:11:04 tuxdsk2 gdm(pam_unix)[7693]: authentication failure;
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost=
Jan 11 15:11:04 tuxdsk2 gdm(pam_unix)[7693]: session opened for user
cpedersen by (uid=0)
Jan 11 15:11:07 tuxdsk2 gdm(pam_unix)[7693]: session closed for user
cpedersen

/etc/nsswitch.conf
passwd:     files ldap
shadow:     files ldap
group:      files ldap

I'm not sure what happens, but it looks like gdm isn't able to login
with non-local users.

Any idea where to start looking?

Regards/Casper
