I can confirm that installing nscd also solves the problem without needing to fiddle with the systemd-logind restrictions. However, I am no fan of nscd. Caching passwords for ten minutes (its default) causes all sorts of confusion when a user changes his password, or requests a password reset, for the protocol has no ability to indicate when the cache is probably invalid.
