Hello, I read in this thread, that remote autologin is not useful. In my installation I have about 20 client computers running LTSP (so they become remote X terminals). all clients do autologin to a central server and run specific software depending on their hostname. each computer is next to a mechanic production machine and needs to display the informations for that machine.
my gdm conf sais: [daemon] TimedLoginEnable=true TimedLoginDelay=1 TimedLogin=/etc/gdm/autologinchooser.sh| and the autologinchooser.sh script reads: #!/bin/bash set -e if [ "${DISPLAY/:*/}" == "192.168.30.72" ]; then echo fox exit 0 elif [ "${DISPLAY/:*/}" == "192.168.30.94" ]; then echo brown exit 0 .... and so on. fi exit 1 I think remote autologin is a very important feature. thanks! erik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
