...just part of install setup. 1) kickstart install 2) post section do somethings 3) setup so on reboot auto login as root 4) complete installing some things and REMOVE the auto root login. This is what I am looking at trying to do. I have it all working except the auto root login. I have looked at gdmsetup on centos 5.3 x86_64 and dont see a setup for it. I have setup gdm to auto login as a regular user but that doesnt work for me. How does one setup gdm to login as root automatically? Thanks, Jerry

I am nearing the end of a project that moved our disparate services and hosts onto kvm virtualized servers. What I am now contemplating is setting up my desktop as a virtual host and using one of the guests as my primary workstation. However, I am not sure how this would work in practice.

I cant find a way to "show all" under gconftool-2 so that I can see what the key/value pair should be. When I do "gconftool-2 -a "

I just installed Centos (version 4.4) and wondering how I can change things so I don't have to login. I am aware of the security implications for doing this but I would prefer this if I can do it.

I am running a Xen installation on a Centos-4.4 based test box, my desktop unit, and I am having intermittent problems installing certain pieces of software. Some time back I posted to this list regarding my inability to install Adobe Acrobat on this unit and was advised to essentially repackage the software and try again. This is beyond my present means of knowledge or time to acquire same and
