Passwords are case-sensitive. Special characters (7-bit ASCII) and the digits 0 to 9 are
allowed. Other special characters like umlauts or accented characters are not allowed.
Passwords you enter are checked for weakness. When entering a password that is easy
to guess, such as a dictionary word or a name, you will see a warning. It is a good secu-
rity practice to use strong passwords.
Two additional options are available:
Receive System Mail
Checking this box sends messages created by the system services to the user. These
are usually only sent to
root
, the system administrator. This option is useful for
the most frequently used account, because it is highly recommended to log in as
root
only in special cases.
The mails sent by system services are stored in the local mailbox
/var/spool/
mail/ username
, where
username
is the login name of the selected user. To
read e-mails after installation, you can use any e-mail client, for example KMail
or Evolution.
Automatic Login
This option automatically logs the current user in to the system when it starts. This
is mainly useful if the computer is operated by only one user. For automatic login
to work, the option must be explicitly enabled.
WARNING: Automatic Login
With the automatic login enabled, the system boots straight into your desktop
with no authentication at all. If you store sensitive data on your system, you
should not enable this option if the computer can also be accessed by others.
Enter more users by calling the User Management module described in Chapter 12,
