Greetings,<br>
<br>
I found the solution back in Fedora 10. It's not exactly "user friendly"...<br>
<br>
All on one line:<br>
<br>
sudo gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory -s --type=bool /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true<br>
<br>
The change should be instant... just log out and log back in.<br>
<br>
Fedora Devs: please take a cue from the Ubuntu camp and either use a sane version of GDM or fix the atrocity that is the current shipping version. Gconftool is even less friendly than Windows' Registry Editor.<br>
<br>
Aloha,<br>

I just tried this on my F11 laptop, following the web page you suggest,<br>
and I got no change at all in behavior after a reboot,... it still<br>
displays the list of users.<br>
