The password change not working is a bug in the libpam-sss pam config file, either install libpam-cracklib or drop 'use_authtok' from the /usr/share/pam-configs/sss file (from the Password line). Dropping the option will be provided as an update to 12.04 at a later date.
I don't know what you mean by 'gdm integration'. It uses the same pam config as everything else, and should just work. Authconfig is a redhat specific tool. Pam_mkhomedir is useful only if you don't have networked homedirectories, and you can add it to the pam stack quite easily (there should be a bug about adding it to the default config). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/997990 Title: fail joining to a freeipa server with ipa-client-install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/freeipa/+bug/997990/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
