[Bug 996293] [NEW] Cannot login using active directory users ( Unknown id: $username )

[Justin Jon L. Jereza]

Public bug reported:

I'm currently having this issue on Ubuntu 12.04. I've verified that I've
done everything listed in
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto. The
smb.conf configuration I'm using is the same as the one I used in 10.04
(which works) with the exception that idmap config is used in place of
idmap backend/uid/gid.

- wbinfo -u / -g lists all the active directory users / groups just fine.
- getent passwd / group fails at listing active directory users / groups.
- wbinfo -a $username authenticates the user properly.
- wbinfo -i $username fails to display the user info.

I've attached my nsswitch, pam, and samba configuration as well as
test.log which contains a log of the commands I've used to try to
troubleshoot this issue.

I haven't seen anything unusual in the winbind logs.
