a) I think gdm is the wrong package on several counts the most important being that this is a server install and there is no mention of a graphical login, and I experience this on an server with no console as well
b) I think this is related to samba / winbindd because when I checked the logs there were error messages related to winbindd (this is a Linux- only network, however it appears winbindd is now a default part of the Ubuntu installation). c) I modified /etc/samba/smb.conf to have the line auth methods = guest sam winbind and logins on the console worked correctly where they hadn't before. ** Tags added: samba winbind ** Tags added: console login timeout -- Lucid server upgrade login times out https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584428 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
