Sorry for the delay, I wanted to wait with the testing until my ticket lifetime ran out.
Anyway, I can confirm that using lightdm 1.10.1-0ubuntu1 causes the ticket cache to be automatically refreshed upon unlocking the screen, and there is no need to run kinit manually anymore. Again, I'm using sssd as backend. Tested both within the ticket lifetime as well as after the tickets expired. I cannot verify if the leaking of the root-owned ticket cache is fixed, as that didn't happen at all with sssd to begin with. Because of that I'm hesitant to change the tag to verification-done already. Maybe Brian will chime in as well to confirm that part. Otherwise I'll change the tag in a few days.

This is due to LightDM not correctly calling pam_end on these. Authenticating via a LightDM greeter does not refresh PAM credentials. [Test Case] 1. Lock screen using LightDM greeter 2. Enter password to return to session Expected result: Screen is unlocked, credentials are refreshed. Observed result: Screen is unlocked, artifacts are left behind from PAM authentication, credentials not refreshed. [Regression Potential] Since this change affects the PAM handling other PAM modules might potentially have a change in behaviour. This seems low risk as both changes are correct behaviour over the previously incorrect behaviour. I am using the pam-krb5 module to log into a Kerberos realm using lightdm. This works the initial time I log in, when I come in through lightdm. However, once I am logged in, and I lock the screen using light-locker, when I unlock the screen I no longer get renewed tickets. The problem seems to be this: -rw------- 1 me me 504 Mar 23 08:37 krb5cc_1000_sjkfhagfg -rw------- 1 root root 504 Mar 23 08:38 krb5cc_pam_lsdkjhfsdk So what is happening is that on the initial login, I get a valid ticket cache, owned by my logging-in user, and showing my UID in the file name. This ticket works fine. However, once I lock the screen and then unlock it, I get a ticket cache owned by root, with "_pam_" in the filename, and of course I can't use it because I am not logged in as root. This problem did not occur in 12.04 LTS, probably because it did not use light-locker. The pam-krb5 module works in all other cases in my installations, so I do not believe this is any kind of problem with the pam_krb5 module.
