Use this Password for the System Administrator
If checked, the same password you have entered for the user will be used for the
system administrator root. This option is suitable for stand-alone workstations
or machines in a home network that are administrated by a single user. When
not checked, you are prompted for a system administrator password in the next
step of the installation workow (see Section 1.11.2, “Password for the System
Administrator root(page 19)).
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.
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 as long as the computer can also be accessed by others.
1.11.1 Expert Settings
Click Change in the Create User dialog to set up network authentication or, if present,
import users from a previous installation. Also change the password encryption type
in this dialog.
You can also add additional user accounts or change the user authentication method
in the installed system. For detailed information about user management, see
Chapter 8, Managing Users with YaST (↑Reference).
The default authentication method is Local (/etc/passwd). If a former version of
openSUSE or another system using /etc/passwd is detected, you may import local
users. To do so, check Read User Data from a Previous Installation and click Choose.
In the next dialog, select the users to import and nish with OK.
Access to the following network authentication services can be congured:
