>Description:
After doing a portupgrade, I discovered that /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc had been recreated (exactly as before), but was mode 0644.  Consequently the AutoLoginPass was ignored (as it should be).

After chmod'ing kdmrc and restarting kdm-bin, it promptly changed the modes back again.

The work around would appear to be to put a chmod 0600 ...kdmrc in the Xstartup file.

>How-To-Repeat:
chmod 0600 /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc 
/usr/local/kdm/bin
..
ls -l /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc 
>Fix:
the bug is in genkdmconf.  The simple workaround of adding a chmod to .../bin/kdm doesnt work.
