[Bug 1561302] Re: gdm won't allow passwordless login
"J.J, that is going to continue to be a problem even after this is fixed, with passwordless login (once the casper patch lands), you don't have a chance to select the session either, since it skips the password step." That's an unfortunate regression, since the previous LTS release of Ubuntu GNOME didn't have that problem. If that regression can't be fixed, though, a note of that problem definitely should be in the release notes for Ubuntu GNOME's next release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561302 Title: gdm won't allow passwordless login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1561302/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1561302] Re: gdm won't allow passwordless login
gdm will now accept passwordless logins.

gdm does set PAM_TTY but it seems to be set much later in the pam processing than on lightdm, so basically its not set until after authentication.

[Bug 1561302] Re: gdm won't allow passwordless login
As documented in pam_unix(8), the nullok_secure option means that null passwords are allowed for this module only when connected via one of the "secure" (that is, generally speaking, "local") ttys listed in /etc/securetty. The tty is not determined directly by pam_unix, but is instead provided to the PAM stack by the calling application setting the PAM_TTY value with pam_set_item(). This is further documented in pam_set_item(3) to be: PAM_TTY The terminal name: prefixed by /dev/ if it is a device file; for graphical, X-based, applications the value for this item should be the $DISPLAY variable. If gdm is not setting the PAM_TTY item, then that's a bug in gdm, not in PAM. The /etc/securetty list of values is regrettably not comprehensive (because e.g. it doesn't support pattern matching), so if your system has been changed to run gdm on an X display beyond :3, the default value will not work for you. However, I don't see any reason this would occur unless the settings of gdm itself had been changed away from the defaults, and if you've done this you will need to adjust the contents of /etc/securetty to match. ** Changed in: pam (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561302 Title: gdm won't allow passwordless login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1561302/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1561302] Re: gdm won't allow passwordless login
For the Ubuntu GNOME live DVD/USB in particular, the lack of a passwordless session is a problem because it means that the user has to jump through hoops to try out GNOME Classic. Instead of just logging out, choosing the GNOME Classic session, and logging back in, a user has to figure out that he/she needs to set the Live Session User's password, and *then* log out and choose the GNOME Classic session. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561302 Title: gdm won't allow passwordless login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gdm/+bug/1561302/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1561302] Re: gdm won't allow passwordless login
Alberto, there may be other related in ubuity-dm, .in particular to the setup of graphics on some systems. However this particular bug is in the gdm greeter itself. Users that log out of the live session, should be able to login again and then to consider users who make a persistent usb and don't set a password. The sign-in button is not made active until you start typing a password. Which was an intentional change as part of recent auth prompt improvements circa 3.16. We either need to hack around that or better work out the "passwordless" login situation which is supported upstream, but probably patched in Ubuntu. ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1561302 Title: gdm won't allow passwordless login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1561302/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
