Robert, I think that will be very great for our case. I agree completely that it is not plausible to distinguish a "network" account. For our part, we are not concerned so much with the labeling, and whatever looks good to the designers is fine with us. I'm very pleased that this change will let us

Targetting to precise. This is a pretty major regression for any non- home setup compared to 10.04 LTS; users must continue to be able to log into the computer. If all else fails, let's bring back the "Other..." option in the user chooser. ** Changed in: unity-greeter (Ubuntu Precise) Importan

This would essentially revert bug 844039. +1 for this from desktop team POV, as removing the Other/network login/you name it option does no harm and is a must if you use any non-default authentication system (which will be the case in any non-home environment). ** Tags added: regression-release rl

There is no distinction with PAM between local and remote accounts. When we initiate a login attempt we just ask PAM for access, and that may check locally or remotely or do anything the system administrator has determined (e.g. accounts can be locked at certain times). As we don't know what the s

This looks related to bug 844039. If that is supposed to replace the "Other.." option, it is confusing: It is not only network users who do not appear in the greeter's user list, it can also be system users or even root.
