Public bug reported: When authenticating against an Active Directory using PowerBroker open (former likewise) and lightdm, /etc/skel is not copied in KUbuntu, but there is no problen in Ubuntu, even following the same steps.
This is happening in KUbuntu, but not in Ubuntu, so I suppose the bug is due to some configuration files in it. Steps to reproduce: * Install KUbuntu * Install samba, cifs-utils, smbclient, ssh * Install PowerBroker open * Edit "/etc/samba/smb.conf" to match your domain (workgroup = yourdomain) and restart samba * Join the domain: sudo domainjoin-cli join fqdn.domain administrator@fqdm.domain sudo /opt/pbis/bin/config AssumeDefaultDomain true sudo /opt/pbis/bin/config UserDomainPrefix domain sudo /opt/pbis/bin/config LoginShellTemplate /bin/bash * Edit /usr/share/pam-configs/pbis and change: sufficient pam_lsass.so to: [success=ok default=ignore] pam_lsass.so * Edit /etc/nsswitch.conf and change: hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns to: hosts: files dns mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] mdns4 * sudo /opt/pbis/bin/lwsm restart lwio * Create the file /usr/share/pam-configs/my_mkhomedir: Name: activate mkhomedir Default: yes Priority: 900 Session-Type: Additional Session: required pam_mkhomedir.so umask=0022 skel=/etc/skel * sudo pam-auth-update * Edit the lightdm greeter config to allow manual login: - In Ubuntu: 50-unity-greeter.conf - In KUbuntu: 40-lightdm-kde-greeter.conf allow-guest=false user-session=kde-plasma greeter-show-remote-login=false greeter-show-manual-login=true * If using KUbuntu, edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm-kde-greeter.conf (not needed in Ubuntu) [greeter] theme-name=classic * Create some contents in /etc/skel * Reboot * Login with an AD user. If Ubuntu is used, /etc/skel files are copied to the user profile for the domain users, whether GUI or console login is used. If the distro is KUbuntu, the files are copied for console logins, but not with GUI. ** Affects: lightdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1335622 Title: Lightdm does not use /etc/skel when authenticating against Active Directory in KUbuntu Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When authenticating against an Active Directory using PowerBroker open (former likewise) and lightdm, /etc/skel is not copied in KUbuntu, but there is no problen in Ubuntu, even following the same steps.
