[Mark <1499675@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

For a long time (from previous versions) on my system I had only one
user - Mark - with admin privileges, a password set and auto-login at
startup. At boot I went directly to the Mark desktop.

Now I add another user for my daughter - Carol - normal user but with no
password. I switch off auto-login for both users. At startup I see the
lightdm screen with users Carol and Mark, I can access Carol correctly
by pressing "Log In" but when I choose Mark I am not asked for the
password, I see the "Log In" button and enter directly in the Mark
desktop without being asked for a password.

I can also access Mark directly from the Carol account using the drop-
down in the top left, again without being asked for a password.

When I look in "user accounts" I see Carol with "no password" and Mark
with a password set, neither have autologin set.

I have looked at all the lightdm config files and can´t see anything
obvious.

I need to protect the Mark account from my growing children. I´d
appreciate your help.

Regards,

Mark Rennie
