<Para>The Login Manager is a server responsible for displaying a login screen,
|
|
authenticating users, and starting a user's session. The graphical login is an
|
|
attractive alternative to the traditional character mode login for bitmap
|
|
displays. Displays managed by the login server can be directly attached to the
|
|
login server or attached to an X terminal or workstation on the network.<IndexTerm><Primary>Login Manager</Primary><Secondary>See also login server</Secondary></IndexTerm><IndexTerm><Primary>Login Manager</Primary><Secondary>definition</Secondary></IndexTerm><IndexTerm><Primary>login servers</Primary><Secondary>displaying login screen</Secondary></IndexTerm><IndexTerm><Primary>login servers</Primary><Secondary>authenticating users</Secondary></IndexTerm><IndexTerm><Primary>login servers</Primary><Secondary>starting a session</Secondary></IndexTerm><IndexTerm><Primary>login servers</Primary><Secondary>attaching displays</Secondary></IndexTerm>

<Para>In the examples below, changing an <Command>Xconfig</Command> resource changes the login
|
|
screen behavior for all displays. The resources listed with an * (asterisk) can be
|
|
specified on a per-display basis. This enables you to specify custom login
|
|
screen behavior for certain displays. To specify a resource for a particular
|
|
display, the resource is specified as <Filename>Dtlogin*</Filename><Symbol Role="Variable">displayName</Symbol><Filename>*</Filename><Symbol Role="Variable">resource</Symbol>. For
|
|
example, if you would like to turn off user based access control for display
|
|
<Filename>expo:0</Filename> but leave it on for other displays, you would specify:</Para>
|
|
<ProgramListing>Dtlogin*expo_0*authorize: False</ProgramListing>
|

<Note>

<Para>Any special character in the display name, such as a: (colon) or.
