Title: No GUI for disabling guest account access Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Given the tendancy to clone the MacUI, it would appear Ubuntu is missing an equivalent option to disable guest access. In OS X 10.7, you'll find it in a "Security and Privacy" control panel. I'm reporting this against LightDM as the file I had to edit to remove it was /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf by adding the line: allow-guest=false Not allowing the target audience (people who don't (want to) know how to use the linux command prompt) to turn off guest access doesn't feel right. As it's kind of treated as an account of sorts (albeit temporary), I'd suggest in Ubuntu that perhaps it should be added to the "User Accounts" control panel.
