Were you using anything funky for samba authentication and some automated way of setting it up (i.e using swat)
No, manually edited config file Will check it.
to set up something like winbind to authenticate samba against a Windows Domain ?
Hopefully not!
As that can and will mess with pam authentication. Is it possible that you enabled this configuration by mistake ?
Absolutely possible, but don't know how if I did.
Hmm, I unistalled Samba, then rebooted, attempted to log in and it logged in at normal (fast) speed. I then tried to login from a virtual console (ctrl-alt-f2) and the first login attempt said "No Login Servers", then after that it logged in OK.
So it's something to do with SAMBA, but my samba config file smb.conf has not changed significantly in ages.
Is PAM trying to authenticate via Samba? If so how do I tell it not to?
And help appreciated. Thanks! :-)
