[Bug 870874] Re: LDAP user with automounted nfs homedir cannot login

[toon]

I had the same problem with a  fresh install of 12.04 on amd 64 bit.
Installing nscd as per comment #39 worked.  I DID NOT have to Comment
the lines in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90qt-a11y gsettings-daemon.  My users
are ldap users with non standard home locations.  I did modify
/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/ just in case that was causing the
problem...Just add /your/user's/home/dir after the line
"@{HOMEDIRS}=/home/ .  Does anyone know why nscd is not installed by
default when libnss-ldap is installed?  It is a recommended package, but
is not pulled in by default.  Anyway, nscd solved my problem and in
addition allowed thunderbird to start properly.  I know this because I
was able to log in once by killing gsettings (see comment #2), during
this session, thunderbird would fail on startup with an error of some
sort; Not the case after installing nscd.  I had this problem with lucid
as well.  OK, that's it for me...love precise and unity...I think one
solution to this issue would be to install nscd by default with libnss-
ldap.
