#8940: optional user login (screen) similar to BeLogin but homegrown supported ---------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: dcatt | Owner: nobody Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Preferences | Version: R1/Development Resolution: | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ---------------------------+---------------------------- Comment (by axeld): If security is a concern, you might want to use DriveEncryption's ability to decrypt and mount any volume you want to via login (it also comes with its own Login application). For example, I use that to mount a volume that contains passwords, mails, etc. For the concerns of the current Haiku, I think it would be nice to have François' Login as an optional package. We could let the Bootscript call a user specific Loginscript instead of launching any user applications like Tracker. That would possibly ease installing something like Login. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8940#comment:6> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
