I can highly recommend doing a kickstart installation. In the kickstart file you can add commands to manually add users with the right UID/GID. You can also update the /etc/pam.d/gdm file in the kickstart file to remove the root login restriction. Very useful to remove these Windows-like "features" of Fedora :-) Mogens -- Mogens Kjaer, Carlsberg A/S, Computer Department Gamle Carlsberg Vej 10, DK-2500 Valby, Denmark Phone: +45 33 27 53 25, Mobile: +45 22 12 53 25 Email: mk@xxxxxx Homepage: http://www.crc.dk -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
