Install Fedora on Xserve, part IV
1. July 2009

Tuning: Fedora 11 on my xserve1,1 (model 2006)

- Update the system software, this includes the kernel. Be aware that when you upgrade the kernel you need to change your grub.conf. I updated my kernel to 2.6.29.6.213.fc11.x86_64 so I changed linux /vmlinuz-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64 and initrd /initrd-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64.img to the new kernel version.

- I also like to login into the root account. (instead of my normal user account)

Step 1: We need to edit some files for this to be happen.
Open your terminal and go into root by 'su root' enter your root password
Backup your gdm first:
cp -a /etc/pam.d/gdm /etc/pam.d/gdm.org

Now edit /etc/pam.d/gdm:
nano /etc/pam.d/gdm

Remove the following line:
auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quite
(control+o is save and control+x is close)

Step 2: We need an other file to be edited:

Backup your gdm-password first:
cp -a /etc/pam.d/gdm-password /etc/pam.d/gdm-password.org

Now edit /etc/pam.d/gdm-password:
nano /etc/pam.d/gdm-password

Remove the following line:
auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quite
(control+o is save and control+x is close)

Step 3: We need an other file to be edited:

Backup your gdm-fingerprint first:
cp -a /etc/pam.d/gdm-fingerprint /etc/pam.d/gdm-fingerprint.org

Now edit /etc/pam.d/gdm-fingerprint:
nano /etc/pam.d/gdm-fingerprint

Remove the following line:
auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quite
(control+o is save and control+x is close)

Now you are able to switch user and login as root.
