Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ldm
Using Ubuntu 8.04.2 / ldm 5.0.40~bzr20080212-0ubuntu4
As noted in Debian bug #471793:
"the open event is executed as user root, while the close event is
executed as the non-privileged user logging in"
This affects pam modules such as pam mount, where when logging out, a
users shares fail to unmount because the non-privileged user can't
unmount. At least I think this is why.
Case: User logs into a thin client. Remote is mounted using pam_mount.
User logs out, pam_mount attempts to unmount the share, share fails to
unmount. lock file is left in /var/run/pam_mount.
This does not happen when logging in directly to the machine, or via
SSH. Only when logging in on a thin client via ldm.
** Affects: ldm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New

ldm seems to handle pam events on logout as non-root.
