Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Michael Boisvert 2013-12-16 16:36:40 UTC
Description of problem:

I add following lines into:  /etc/gdm/custom.conf
          
          [daemon]
          TimedLoginEnable=true
          TimedLogin=$username
          TimedLoginDelay=30

How reproducible: Every log in besides the first after restarting the machine. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create custom.conf with above information.
2. Log out/kill gdm
3. Wait.

Actual results: The progress bar under the username takes 30 seconds to complete, but it never actually logs into the account.

Expected results: Account logs in automatically after specified time.

Additional Info: It works as the first log in on the machine, but if you log out it tries again but never logs in.

I am seeing the same problem with the recently released production version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Timed login has worked in snap 2 and snap 4. Verified.
