    That's not the case; /etc/nologin doesn't hang the session. The problem appears to be either a home directory not mounted or a program which runs upon users' login but doesn't work as expected.

We had a similar problem when the user directories couldn't be mounted 
because automount got hung.  We had to reboot.
