| prpl | Hi, Lubuntu boots to desktop without password, as I selected during the installation. No I would like the password to be required at boot. I looked at the users and grouips but I am not sure how to proceed, Thanks for any help... | 01:29 |
|---|---|---|
| prpl | now* | 01:30 |
| prpl | Under the username it says password "Asked on login" but it'd not | 01:32 |
| prpl | it's not | 01:32 |
| thiefy | did you set a password when you installed the OS? | 01:40 |
| thiefy | prpl | 01:40 |
| prpl | yes | 01:40 |
| prpl | but selected to boot without needing to type password | 01:41 |
| prpl | It asks for the password for allother admin stuff | 01:41 |
| thiefy | so in there, you set the password for logon, then you uncheck the box "don't ask for pass on logon" ? | 01:42 |
| prpl | I must have...several months ago | 01:42 |
| thiefy | make sure the 'don't ask on logon' box is unchecked for all your users. | 01:43 |
| prpl | just one user... | 01:43 |
| prpl | where is that box ? | 01:43 |
| prpl | i'min user settings now | 01:43 |
| thiefy | in system tools - then users and groups - then beside 'password' it says 'change...' click on that. | 01:44 |
| prpl | ok | 01:44 |
| thiefy | at the bottom of that lil window you'll see 'don't ask for it on login' also, in there, make sure you enter it so that's what it'll be lookin fer on login | 01:44 |
| prpl | thing is it says "asked on login" beside password | 01:45 |
| thiefy | right. that's good. | 01:45 |
| thiefy | click the 'change...' button beside that. | 01:45 |
| prpl | and thatn other box isnt checked | 01:45 |
| prpl | ok...so reboot ? | 01:46 |
| prpl | ait seems that it already thinks that the password is required at l;ogin | 01:47 |
| prpl | let me reboot and see if it needs the password | 01:48 |
| prpl | lubuntu boots without password even though in users and groups it says Password: Asked on login and the Dont ask for password on login box is not ticked... | 01:53 |
| prpl | says my Account type is Custom | 01:54 |
| prpl | I would like the password to be required at boot time | 01:54 |
| prpl | Shoul I change my password and try again ? | 01:56 |
| thiefy | i guess, i don't know of any setting elsewhere that lets you get into the OS without logging in first. | 01:59 |
| prpl | I am in the system though..I just cant add the password to be required | 01:59 |
| prpl | I can open the synaptics and gparted they require the password and I supply it | 02:00 |
| prpl | Everything works...and has for months...I just want to protect my privacy at boot ime now... | 02:01 |
| prpl | time* | 02:01 |
| prpl | This is a old stylus tablet hp tc1100 and I preferred to bypass boot login for ease of use. One less step. Now I take this tablet to work and would prefer the password requirement at startup | 02:03 |
| prpl | Its not a deal breaker, but this option to change back to 'password required' should be click clo=ick done....so to speak | 02:07 |
| prpl | spelling bad. sorry | 02:07 |
| prpl | Would Chnaging the password while logged in be an alternative and then try again ? | 02:08 |
| prpl | If I cfhange my account type from 'Custo' to 'Desktop User', then change password.I wonder if that will then give me the opportunity to change password requirements at startup | 02:11 |
