Need some #fedora #sysadmin expertise. I am running Fedora 38 with #Gnome 44. It is configured to hide the user list with config files in /𝚎𝚝𝚌/𝚍𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚏. I used the 𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚎𝚌𝚝 command to enable 𝚏𝚊𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚘𝚌𝚔, and now the user list is visible and I can't revert it. No 𝚍𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚏 config files have been changed and reversing the 𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚎𝚌𝚝 option does not work. I don't know how to troubleshoot this. Boost for visibility please and thank you. #linux
@bbbourq GDM (which manages the login screen) also uses /var/lib/gdm/.config/dconf Maybe remove that one and follow https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/login-userlist-disable.html.en #fedora
Ok I will take a look at that. I just don't understand how using 𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚎𝚌𝚝 would affect the GDM.
So I looked at the directory /𝚟𝚊𝚛/𝚕𝚒𝚋/𝚐𝚍𝚖/.𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚏𝚒𝚐/𝚍𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚏 and removed the single file in there, but there was no change in the login screen. I have the config set up like the link you provided in the /𝚎𝚝𝚌/𝚍𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚏/𝚍𝚋/𝚐𝚍𝚖.𝚍/ directory. Might there be something in the /𝚎𝚝𝚌/𝚙𝚊𝚖.𝚍/ directory that is overriding those settings?
@bbbourq I never used authselect but did you try running 'authselect opt-out' ? That should remove the authselect configuration and restore pam and nsswitch settings per 'man authselect'.
I have not tried that. I think that is a good option. Thanks for the idea!
