Check that 'winbind' is listed in /etc/nsswitch.conf on the lines for 'passwd', 'group'. You can run 'wbinfo -u' to check that winbind can read information about your users from your domain controller, and run 'getent passwd' to check if libc (and applications which use it, which is all of them, including the application which is trying to authenticate you) can read information about those users from the sources listed in /etc/nsswitch.conf (which should include 'winbind'). That done, you'll want to configure login and other applications to authenticate users using winbind by adding a line auth sufficient pam_winbind.so to /etc/pam.d/system-auth, just under the line which reads auth sufficient /lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok To finish up, you'll need to make sure that the user has a home directory for gdm, kdm, and the like, but logging in at the console should work at this point, even if the user doesn't have a home directory.
