Thank you very much Mike, I did not actually ***see*** the difference, I can change one to AutomaticLoginEnable=True, and AutomaticLogin=students and see what happens.

I have used the TimedLoginEnable=True since Fedora 9, and got acustomed to it :( 

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/fedora-9-auto-login-644821/

is what I used, and I did not even notice the difference from 

# sed -i 's/Timed/Automatic/g'

in /etc/gdm/custom.conf

I will see what difference this makes and report back tomorrow when I get to the machines which have this.

Regards,

Antonio
