the issue with not having the same output of the "id" command has gone away after a reboot but something is still strange with that as I did logout and login the user after changing the group settings for the user to be able to see the change.
its not going to work well if the entire machine needs to be rebooted every time /etc/group is changed. again worked fine when logged into the terminal/ssh but the desktop(gdm) did not pick up the change until after a reboot. is something caching user data ?? that user id was in nis but the group file was local (the id was added to sudo and adm group) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883515 Title: Can not login with gdm3 when user cred is stored in NIS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1883515/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
