In later Fedora releases, GDM has become less and less functional:
configurability has been removed, more so as releases occur. From my
(known to be flaky) memory, that includes the ability to turn off the
silly list that exposes usernames right on the login screen, the ability
to assign your own wallpaper to the login screen, among other things.
In some releases you can hack your way around whatever the missing
feature is that you're missing by using gconf-editor, in others you can't.
So, my guess is that RHEL/Centos 6 has inherited the later Gnome
"features" that have removed the feature you want.
