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 of problem: Timed login via the custom.conf method is not working anymore. 

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Add following lines into file:  /etc/gdm/custom.conf
          [daemon]
          TimedLoginEnable=true
          TimedLogin=$username
          TimedLoginDelay=10
2. Run "systemctl restart gdm"

Actual results: The timed login progress bar never appears and the user is never automatically logged in after 10 second. 

Expected results: The specified user is automatically logged in after the specified 10 seconds.

More info: Timed login works when the user list is disabled.

Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2018-02-13 19:16:33 UTC
seems to be a mistake introduced when one of the downstream patches got rebased:

+                                                          let currentTime = GLi
+.get_monotonic_time();

should be:

+                                                          let currentTime = GLib.get_monotonic_time();•

Comment 7 Michael Boisvert 2018-02-14 19:24:00 UTC
I can verify this now works on gnome-shell-3.26.2-4.el7.
