Yes, I have been doing [from my notes]:

"2013-07-10 Fedora-19

   How do I change the default run level?

systemd uses symlinks to point to the default runlevel.  You have to 
delete the existing symlink first before creating a new one

  rm /etc/systemd/system/default.target

Switch to runlevel 3 by default
  ln -sf /lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target 
/etc/systemd/system/default.target  "

I'm struggling with your explanation but not sure if you are suggesting 
a fix or offering a few thoughts, in other words, I am still lost!

F-20 in the VM developed the same authorization symptoms after I made 
the above change. Obviously I have created the problem. It has worked 
until now. :-[

So, from the F-20 VM displaying the problem this is what I get:

[root at localhost bobg]# ll /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 35 Jan 23 16:25 
/etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service -> 
/usr/lib/systemd/system/gdm.service
