Fair enough, it's not a bug, it's a misfeature as the guy above said. Can we not have a private/public key scheme here? Somehow, I can't think of the specifics. Something that allows root to unlock the password, but in a secure way.
Even if a solution requires you to enter your password ones when you setup your auto-login, I think most will agree that this is fine, as long as you are not asked for a password every time you boot/login. -- libpam-keyring broken on autologins https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137247 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
