Check Text (C-261345r996493_chk)
Note: If a graphical user interface is not installed, this requirement is not applicable.
Verify SLEM 5 does not allow unattended or automatic logon via the GUI.
Check that unattended or automatic login is disabled with the following commands:
> grep -i ^DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager
DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN=""
> grep -i ^DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager
DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN="no"
If the "DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN" parameter includes a username or the "DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN" is not set to "no", this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-64982r996492_fix)
Note: If a graphical user interface is not installed, this requirement is not applicable.
Configure SLEM 5 GUI to not allow unattended or automatic logon to the system.
Add or modify the following lines in the "/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager" file:
DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN=""
DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN="no"
