OK, the problem is much more easier in fact: sesman needs to be launched
as root. I did not detect this because my setup is using LDAP and you
can bind with LDAP without having root privileges. But when using plain
shadow file, sesman needs root privileges to auth a user. I suppose for
NIS that sesman needs to read (via PAM) some file that is only readable
by root.
The fix is easy: remove chuid directive in /etc/init.d/xrdp for sesman
launch. Tell me if it works for you.
