Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
with ubuntu-desktop and libnss-ldapd
Trying to log in to the desktop environment when the username (e.g
9912345) begins with a number results in a black screen, and then quits
back to the log in screen.
Here is the error:
`...gdm-password][5010]: pam_systemd(gdm-password:session): Failed to get user
record: Invalid argument`
However, these users can log-in via ssh, and via TTY without issue.
This error does not occur if I log in with other users, without a number
(e.g. test.user)
Also, the error does not occur if I switch to LightDM. With LightDM, a
username such as 9912345 can login to the desktop desktop environment.
