You have been subscribed to a public bug:
When login with a NIS account, X does not start, or more precisely it
starts and exits immediately.
Only errors in logs is:
(EE) systemd-logind: failed to get session: PID 4335 does not belong to any
known session
X11/gdm login works fine with local accounts.
SSH/terminal console login with NIS accounts works fine.
/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config:
allowed_users=anybody
I've seen several reports of such problems under other versions (eg
19.10), but no working solutions was found. It seems that the problem is
the same with lightdm.
