AUTOLOGIN(4)							  AUTOLOGIN(4)

NAME
     autologin - set autologin user identity

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/autologin

     /etc/autologin.TTYLINE

DESCRIPTION
     /etc/autologin is an ASCII file containing the login user name to be used
     when autologin is enabled.	 The file is used by xdm(1) and clogin(1) when
     automatically initiating a terminal session on the graphics console.

     /etc/autologin.TTYLINE is like /etc/autologin except it is used by
     getty(1m) when initiating a terminal session for the device named by
     TTYLINE.  For example /etc/autologin.ttyd1 will control the login
     processes on /dev/ttyd1.

NOTES
     Autologin is controlled by the existence of the /etc/autologin.on file.
     The file is normally created at boot time to automate the login process
     and then removed by xdm or clogin to disable the autologin process for
     succeeding terminal sessions.

     When PAM (see pam(8)) is enabled, autologin will not work.

FILES
     /etc/autologin, /etc/autologin.on, /etc/autologin.TTYLINE.

SEE ALSO
     clogin(1), xdm(1), getty(1m), pam (8).
