Yeah, I may have made a mistake. I've made many tryes before. And It only worked when I've undone all the procedures. I guess editing greeter.dconf-defaults is much better too.

Thank you, Fábio! My guess is that you made some typo the first time, which speaks for the documented way being error prone. So with this information, I'm thinking of asking the GNOME help developers to consider to replace it with showing how to edit /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults. The latter way is apparently easier and, probably, safer. ** Changed in: gnome-user-docs (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-user-docs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759043 Title: gdm3 disable-user-list does not work bionic Status in gnome-user-docs package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This how-to does not work on artful and bionic: https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/login-userlist-disable.html.en GDM will always show the users list - even those logged remotely.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1759043] Re: gdm3 disable-user-list does not work bionic
Hmmm Now I've just made a new clean OS reinstall. Installed all apt updates available right now (including dconf-cli_0.26.0-2ubuntu3, dconf-gsettings-backend_0.26.0-2ubuntu3 and dconf-service_0.26.0-2ubuntu3). Followed straightly gnome's webpage instructions. It worked as expected! Then edited /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults as Jeremy suggested - and It worked. And lastly undone first steps and left only /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults edited. And It also worked. For me It seems that, in current start, both procedures works as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-user-docs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1759043 Title: gdm3 disable-user-list does not work bionic Status in gnome-user-docs package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This how-to does not work on artful and bionic: https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/login-userlist-disable.html.en GDM will always show the users list - even those logged remotely.

I followed straightly all the steps (https://help.gnome.org/admin /system-admin-guide/stable/login-userlist-disable.html.en). A database similar to yours was created at /etc/dconf/db/gdm. The first time I edited /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults It did not work. Then I undone what I have done before: Deleted /etc/dconf/profile/gdm, /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/00-login-screen, /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/, /etc/dconf/db/gdm and then I've run "dconf update" again. All of that leaving the file /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults as suggested. This time It worked fine. Lastly I've made a clean OS reinstall using today's daily-live bionic iso and only edited /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults as suggested.

Editing /etc/gdm3/greeter.dconf-defaults, as Jeremy suggested, works for me too. However, also the instruction in system-admin-guide works fine for me, so making an Ubuntu specific variant of that page seems not to be motivated. Possibly there is room for improvements of the upstream page. @Fábio: Before suggesting anything, it would be valuable to know why it failed for you. For instance, did you successfully create the dconf database?
