Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and help to improve Ubuntu.
I'm closing this bug, because I think it entirely defeats the purpose of Kerberos integration if we bypass Kerberos merely because a local account is present. Network-related login delays are unpleasant, but having to manually request a TGT on every login is far more annoying if you're expecting to have Kerberos integration and just have a local account entry as a fallback when the network is down. So the current behavior of this profile is precisely the behavior that's intended, and what upstream recommends for the use of pam_krb5. This should not be changed. See the pam_krb5 manpage for suggestions of various ways to disable the use of pam_krb5 for certain users if that's what you're aiming for. ** Changed in: libpam-krb5 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Won't Fix -- "krb5" pam-auth-update profile priority is greater than "unix" profile https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/369964 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
