This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.1.9-0ubuntu1
---------------
lightdm (1.1.9-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
[ Gunnar Hjalmarsson ]
* debian/guest-account: Add trailing '/' to the line
"gs_skel=/etc/guest-session/skel" (LP: #956152).
[ Robert Ancell ]
* New upstream release:
* Add --show-users/--hide-users to lightdm-set-defaults
* Call initgroups before pam_setcred - this allows pam_setcred to change
group membership correctly (LP: #880104)

Bug description:
I have configured many computers to authenticate through a openldap server.
To be able to be admin in each computer, I use pam_group feature to select
additional groups for user. (/etc/security/group.conf).
Login directly on the console give me good group membership (the one defined
in group.conf), but login from lightdm results in an error message in
auth.local:
pam_group(lightdm:setcred): unable to set the group membership for user:
operation not permitted.
Of course, the group membership is not set as it should.
