New Modified Description
X This script determines if the desktop is GNOME
or KDE, then installs (or removes) the session
startup file ($HOME/.kde/Autostart/
ncl_autologin.desktop or $HOME/
.gnome2/session-manual) for that Display
Manager.
This file is copied to $HOME/.kde/Autostart
and runs ncl_autologin.
New Modified Description
X KDE startup for ncl_autologin.
X GNOME startup for ncl_autologin.
X Validates and run nwlogin or gnwlogin.
This existing file silently authenticates and
processes scripts.
X GUI for authentication, processing scripts, and
saving settings. This file adds a new tab (called
Startup) to the Novell Login dialog box which
allows users to save their current login settings
for use during the next system startup to
automatically log in the user.
When the user clicks Clear Profile on the Startup
tab, the $HOME/.novell/ncl/
StartupLogin.conf file is deleted.
When the user clicks Save Current Profile, the
settings are used to authenticate the user (but not
run login scripts). If authentication is successful
(CASA stores those credentials), the current
settings are written to StartupLogin.conf.
