I installed LTSP on top of Ubuntu Server 14.04.  I have just about everything 
working, except I cannot sudo within the client.  My user (mythltsp) is added 
to the server and is part of the sudo group on the server.

Commands executed on the LTSP server:
cat /etc/passwd | grep mythltsp
mythltsp:x:1001:1001::/home/mythltsp
cat /etc/group | grep mythltsp
sudo:x:27:mythltsp
mythtv:x:122:mythltsp
mythltsp:x:1001:


When opening up a terminal on the client and trying to sudo, it prompts me for 
my password, but it never accepts my password.  I know the password is correct, 
because I use it to auto-log into the client at boot.  I also edited the 
sudoers file so that it shouldn't even prompt for a password, but that doesn't 
seem to work either, it still prompts me for a password and yet doesn't proceed 
even with the correct password, it just keeps saying the password is incorrect.

/opt/ltsp/amd64/etc/sudoers file has both of these which I would suspect should 
work:
mythltsp ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
%sudo  ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

The image was rebuild and contains this config.


auth log has the following when attempting to type in my password during a sudo 
command:

May 16 08:36:52 ltsp17 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): conversation failed
May 16 08:36:52 ltsp17 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): auth could not identify 
password for [mythltsp]
May 16 08:36:55 ltsp17 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): authentication failure; 
logname=mythltsp uid=1001 euid=0 tty=/dev/pts/1 ruser=mythltsp rhost=  
user=mythltsp


I'm running mythfrontend on my clients and I cannot reboot or shutdown from 
mythfrontend, I believe the issues may be tied together because when I attempt 
to reboot or shutdown the client from mythfrontend, I get this same thing in 
the auth log:

May 16 08:46:14 ltsp17 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): conversation failed
May 16 08:46:14 ltsp17 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:auth): auth could not identify 
password for [mythltsp]

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
