Hello all, Still quite new to Linux, but learning every single day. I have four users on my system (Suse 9.1 on AMD 64 3200+). One of the users is automatically logged on as soon as i start the 'puter. Even though i specifically told it (through YAST) to not start with a specific user. Any ideas which file i should examine to see what is happening ? Regards, Gerard ter Beke

I guess this is KDE's autologin feature. To disable: Do as *that* user: Control Center -> System Administration -> Login Manager Click on the 'Administrator Mode'-button and enter root's password Click on the 'Convenience'-tab Uncheck 'Enable auto-login' Uncheck 'Enable password-less logins' Click 'Apply' Cheers, Leen
Thanks Leendert, that was the right answer. Feel a bit stupid now, but at least i learned something. Gotta do some more exploring of the system to see what does what. Thanks again. Regards, Gerard ter Beke Op vr 05-11-2004, om 21:46 schreef Leendert Meyer:

Therefore you have no reason to feel stupid!

When I was learning I created a user specifically for 'playing' with - that way if I screwed up I could delete the contents of the home directory and start again. Was fun! Dylan -- "I see your Schwartz is as big as mine" -Dark Helmet
