Public bug reported:

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.

Thanks,
Brian
