Hi
Possibly first time setup ( for new installs) . I don't have immediate access to a fedora box. These can be restricted via policykit afaik.
Cheers

hello
I use about a hundred fedora19 stations in computer labs at our school
users accounts comes from an ldap directory and the homedir is automounted via NFS.
However, recently I noticed that on some stations, local user account had been created !
looking at the log file, I discovered in /var/log/secure something like this:
accounts-daemon: request by system-bus-name ::1.733 [/usr/libexec/gnome-initial-setup pid:15259 uid:991]: create user 'foobar'
useradd[29724]: new group: name=foobar, GID=1001
secure-20131117:Nov 15 17:16:43 b3-4 useradd[29724]: new user: name=susana, UID=1001, GID=1001, home=/home/susana, shell=/bin/bash
secure-20131117:Nov 15 17:16:43 b3-4 useradd[29724]: add 'susana' to group 'wheel'
secure-20131117:Nov 15 17:16:43 b3-4 useradd[29724]: add 'susana' to shadow group 'wheel'
Scary ! how comes gnome-initial-setup could create users, and morever add them to the wheel group !
could it be a bug in gnome-initial-setup , a feature side effect ? or our students found a "back door" ?
any suggestion greatly appreciated .
Thanks .
