Bug Description
Install likewise-open and join a domain
install libpam-mount and set up a share to mount
Modify common-session so likewise open and pam mount work together (see bug https:/
Log in as a new user from the domain (but who does not yet have a home on the local machine)
pam_mount will mount the share, but everything in /etc/skel isn't copied over.
To prove pam_mount is the issue edit common-session and remove the reference to pam_mount
Log in as a new user and we can see files in /etc/skel are copied over. Of course now we have no shares.
In a typical user creation the files are copied right away and this issue is avoided. By when logging into a domain the user is created at first login. I am unsure if this happens only to likewise open or to any login mechanism that creates the home folder on the fly.
