It's totally unusable to me, since I only have one AD account so switching to another user isn't really viable.
Obviously there's the workaround of going to a console session as root and killing gnome-screensaver, but that's just silly in my opinion. Interesting that the microsoft support link doesn't give a rationale either way for this policy. It would probably be good to have it as a configurable option though, rather than forcing it to work one way or the other. Wouldn't a locked account result in a successful pam auth, but unsuccessful pam account result, rather than checking for a specific error code? -- gnome-screensaver should allow screen unlock even if account is locked out https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/404321 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to likewise-open in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
