Automatic or Timed Login With Fedora 11

1:01 PM / Diposting oleh Sharing IT /

With the last few releases of Fedora(More specifically ever since Gnome moved to the new GDM) there is no longer a GUI to allow for a timed or automatic login - it has been said that there will eventually be one, but it is not here yet.

To add either a timed login or an automtatic login, you need to modify the file /etc/gdm/custom.conf and add the following for a timed login:

[daemon]
TimedLoginEnable=true
TimedLogin=username
TimedLoginDelay=5

Just replace the word username with the correct username, and also the number 5 withhowever many seconds you want the system to wait before automatically logging in.

For an automatic login with no wait, you can either use the above with a time of 0 seconds, or use:

[daemon]
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
AutomaticLogin=username
