Logging in after boot ..

["Chakrabarti, Suvendra (CTS)" <CSUVENDRA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

someone asked about logging in to an user without keying in the customary
username and password just after boot. (I think I deleted that mail ..).
Well
you can append the following lines in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file.

If the user name to which you generally log in is my_login, put this line:

#-------- log in to my_login (modified 06/08/1999) --- Check the path on
your m/c
su my_login -c '/bin/bash -login -'
#-------- end of modification 06/08/1999

The -login tells bash to read bash_profile | ~/.bash_profile, to set env.
variables.
