On Ubuntu Trusty Tahr(14.04.2 LTS). On an existing user account, after a while, I set 'Login without a password' via 'User Management' in gnome-control-center.
Now I disabled 'Login without a password', and configured a password for the user. On subsequent reboots, I am still able to login without a password. 'groups' command shows that this account is still a part of 'nopasswdlogin' group. [reworded original bug description] I am of the opinion that the source of the bug lies in not reversing the operation (of adding username to 'nopasswordlogin' group). Should I be checking in the source code of gnome-control-center? Any suggestions/RTFMs? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906081 Title: Disabling 'Login without a password' does not remove user from the nopasswdlogin group Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Fresh install of Ubuntu Oneiric. Created a new user account using 'adduser' on the command line, then set 'Login without a password' via 'User Management' in gnome-control-center. After performing some additional initial configuration of the box, went back to 'User Management', disabled 'Login without a password', and configured a password for the user. On subsequent reboots, was still able to login without a password. Tried enabling and disabling 'Login without a password' several times via 'User Management', but eventually had to manually remove the user from the 'nopasswdlogin' group to disable this feature.
