Tue Jan 06 17:06:42 2004 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com> * gui/greeter/themes/*/*: remove the xml.in files and readd the .xml files. There are no translations done anymore. * config/gdm.conf.in, daemon/gdm.[ch], daemon/misc.[ch], daemon/slave.c, daemon/verify-crypt.c, daemon/verify-pam.c, daemon/verify-shadow.c: Add support for displaying last login information if daemon/DisplayLastLogin is set (default to true). Fixes #128940 * daemon/verify-crypt.c, daemon/verify-shadow.c: The 'user already logged in' (double login warning) dialog thingie should only be shown AFTER all verification is done (as it does for PAM setups) * docs/C/gdm.xml: update for DisplayLastLogin * config/gdm.conf.in, daemon/gdm.h: the RetryDelay is annoying at 3 now that it works. Set it to 1.

+ If true then the last login information is printed to the user
+ before being prompted for password. While this gives away some
+ info on what users are on a system, it on the other hand should
+ give the user an idea of when they logged in and if it doesn't
+ seem kosher to them, they can just abort the login and contact
+ the sysadmin (avoids running malicious startup scripts).
+ This was added in version 2.5.90.0.

+ This is for making GDM conformant to CSC-STD-002-85, although
