lucid unown user id LTSP user cant loggin

[Michael Rickmann]

Hi,
I had seemingly the same issue one week ago, when upgrading an LTSP 
server from Hardy to Lucid. This server has to query a different machine 
via ldaps:// when a user wishes to log in. During update I kept the old 
/etc/pam.d files.
I managed to work around the issue by installing the Name Service Cache 
Daemon nscd on the LTSP server. It had helped me on some fat clients before.
