By default the userlist is shown in kdm. Several time ago security team would like to see it removed.
It was the case mainly due to "broken/non feature" in the previous themes used in 12.1. Now under 12.2 the new theme proposed is fully aware of userlist/domain remote login etc.
But to comply with what security team want then it seems we should have a patch changing the default show userlist to no in /usr/share/kde4/config/kdm/kdmrc.
What is your opinion on that ?
If my opinion is worth anything I would go with the default to not show the userlist. I believe what the "security team" says is correct.
It would be nice if the administrator of the box can easily change to show the userlist if they should desire it.
However, I am not a developer and do not know how hard it would be to implement the change.
Absolute no programming change : once you have a theme that allow it, systemsettings -> display manager -> users tab -> check on userlist and manage what you want to see. :-) -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Ambassador GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
