Gdm login bug - is anyone else having this

[Peter Glassenbury (CSSE)]

Gdm on my test machine F12 Alpha x86_64 doesn't give me a login user entry field
I thought i might have been something I did wrong
  but Vincent at redhat is also reporting the same
thing on F12Beta as a comment here(Don't think it is linked to that bug though)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502072

Is anyone else having or has seen the issue in F12beta or alpha
and fixed it?

Vincents comments
   Ummm...  I'm not sure if this is due to the use of bind_policy soft, but at gdm
   I have no user entry field.  I see Suspend, Restart, Shut Down, and Log In, and
   when clicking on Log In it just recycles the gdm screen.  I can, however, login
   at the console just fine.
   .<snip>.... nscd is installed and running, and even
   after a reboot (hoping perhaps the nscd cache would persist to present this
   information), still no way to login via gdm.

My comment
   My root was allowed to login at gdm but can't. when you type
over the login part of the screen, a box shows up with your typing
(maybe a search box for users??) but it doesn't use these entries
for logging in.
Same results when /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true
and when false.
I have a custom.conf in gdm that does this
[security]
DisallowTCP=false
[xdmcp]
HonorIndirect=false


This is not in Bugzilla yet as I wasn't sure it was not
something I misconfigured
but with someone else having the same issue....
