Dear FBSD users,
I had a machine that did not want to boot up anymore. This morning my
friend which is a computer technician started it up for me and it is
working. I setup FreeBSD 11.1 on it and installed pkgs and xorg and
have it working. However, my autologin procedures which worked before
no longer work. I have a user olivares and configured /etc/gettytab
and /etc/ttyS
In /etc/ttyS
ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Al" cons25 on secure
in /etc/gettytab
# log me in automatically
A|Al|Autologin console:\
ht:np:sp#115200:al=olivares
and when i startup system instead of logging in automagically, it asks
for password. I have .profile configured to automatically run startx.
How do i enable passwordless logins?
I have another working machine but i have updated from 11.0-RELEASE to
11.1-RELEASE-p2
Best Regards,
Antonio
