[Bug 740505] New: XFCE _OpenSUSE 12.1 - No Secure Login Password Prompt on Reboot
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=740505 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=740505#c0 Summary: XFCE _OpenSUSE 12.1 - No Secure Login Password Prompt on Reboot Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Xfce AssignedTo: bnc-team-xfce@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ford_dent@yahoo.co.uk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0 If I resume from hibernate the laptop is secure as I get the X-Screensaver password prompt. However if I REBOOT/Restart there is no such prompt. I am instead asked to chose a session (Default session) or start a new session. I can get the login password prompt by logging out but it never appears after a reboot / restart which is of course very very insecure. I am aware that startup password prompt is only basic protection but not having it in xfce is very concerning. I guess it must be some bug but is there a workaround to get it working on every reboot? Even if it was just the x-screensaver password prompt that would be better than nothing... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Reboot 2. 3. Expected Results: Password prompt on beginning of X Session after reboot -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN="no" DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN="myusername" SOLVED: After exploring Yast sysconfig Editor I hunted out /etc/sysconfig file I found an autologin entry that I didn't spot in the yast sysconfig Editor I manually changed it to DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN="no" For some reason it had got set to autologin my username. It is now showing in sysconfig Editor as 'no' so maybe I just missed it. I don't know how it happened to set as autologin in the first place. Thanks for the input.

I manually changed it to
DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN="no"
It should actually be empty (or if you ever created a user "no" he would be logged in automatically). YaST allows you to change it as well if you go to "User and Group Administration" -> "Expert Options" -> "Login Settings".
For some reason it had got set to autologin my username. It is now showing in sysconfig Editor as 'no' so maybe I just missed it.
I don't know how it happened to set as autologin in the first place.
It is the default unless you explicitly say no during installation. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
