After performing a system update one of my users was no longer able to authenticate against Active Directory. This is on a Ubuntu 14.04 on amd64.

The error in /var/log/auth.log was:

Nov 24 15:08:06 haggerstone lightdm: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_winbind.so): /lib/security/pam_winbind.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried rebooting thinking something broke during the update, but I got the same error.

I checked against my PC and saw that there were updates pending for the samba packages. I used the version numbers on my PC to perform a downgrade to 2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 and the problem went away.

The affected version is 2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.04.2
