Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libpam-afs-session
Using libpam-afs-session 1.7-2 on x86_64 version of Ubuntu 10.04.1
When I have this module in my PAM stack and I authenticate as a user
with an AFS identity (and get a token), I get added to a group that
doesn't exist, as reported by the id and groups commands:
$ id
uid=648(taft) gid=200(bioinf)
groups=200(bioinf),2693(csbio),2694(csbioadm),1103439836
$ groups
bioinf csbio csbioadm groups: cannot find name for group ID 1103439836
1103439836
1103439836 is not a group (or gid number of a group) that is defined
anywhere on my system. If I comment out pam_afs_session.so from the
common pam stack files, I don't see this behavior.
Since the default Ubuntu /etc/bash.bashrc file runs the groups command,
every time that I login as a user with an AFS identity, I get the above
error message (groups: cannot find name for group ID 1103439836) before
my first shell prompt.
Note that the number of the non-existent group is not always the same.
The files in /etc/pam.d on this system are:
