Bug description:
This is in a NIS/Kerberos environment with shared users in a lab.
/home is on NFS. I have configured lightdm to disable the list of
users with these entries in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf:
[SeatDefaults]
greeter-session=unity-greeter
allow-guest=false
greeter-hide-users=true
greeter-show-manual-login=true
The symptoms are actually quite similar to bug #986967, but happen
again in quantal. I can enter my user name, but the password box won't
appear.
