 Interestingly, I have just done the same thing, but the user switching is
 still enabled and functioning.

I've just 'downgraded' gnome-session to the default version - and now 
when I logout, I have a (working) 'Switch User' button on the 'Log out 
of this system now?' window

Upgrading to our modified gnome-session RPM and, after a reboot, that 
button is gone ...

[CentOS] Disabling user switching in CentOS 6

2013-07-08 Thread Vanhorn, Mike


Installing CentOS 6 on a lab full of workstations, and I want to disable
fast user switching. With CentOS 5, I simply made sure that the
user_switch_enabled entry in
/etc/gconf/schemas/gnome-screensaver.schemas was set to false. However,
that doesn't work with CentOS 6.

I've found various proposed solutions to this issue, such as

gconftool-2 --direct --config-source
xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory \
--type bool --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/user_switch_enabled false
gconftool-2 --direct --config-source
xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory \
--type bool --set /desktop/gnome/lockdown/disable_user_switching true

neither of which work, either. Does anyone know the proper way to disable
user switching with CentOS 6?

Thanks!

There is an open Bugzilla case about this: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=744281 - which doesn't seem to be 
going anywhere ...

We've applied the patch available from 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598255 to the gnome-session SRPM - 
which works for us (with the above gconf settings)
