[Bug 73440] Re: GDM does not accept Windows domain logins
From upstream: Note that GDM supports custom lists where you can specify additional combo boxes or listviews showing a list of choices. Refer to section 8.2.11 here: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gdm/docs/2.16/thememanual.html Why don't you just use this in your theme and then in your PAM module refer to the var/gdm/:0.GreeterInfo file to find out what the value was set to? This seems like it would be a bit cleaner than hacking the GDM theme since GDM already supports this kind of mechanism. Perhaps you want to add a feature that forces the user to enter a value in the userlist before the user is allowed to enter a username/password. An enhancement like this would be generic and fairly easy to code. Probably just add a tag element to specify that the username/password entry field will be insensitive until the user picks a value in the custom list? You might also want to enhance the custom lists so that rather than having to hardcode the possible values in the theme, it gets the values by running a script. I think enhancing the existing custom list feature is probably a better and more generic way to support the features you want rather than hardcoding something specific for domains. From a long-term perspective, adding to PAM the ability to support combo lists would be a good idea and avoid the need to use custom lists, but adding such an enhancement to PAM would probably take some time. What do you think? I think Custom Lists is the right approach to get the feature you want without needing to hack the GUI more directly. So closing this bug report. -- GDM does not accept Windows domain logins https://launchpad.net/bugs/73440 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
