10.4: Hide users from the login window via prefs
Thanks, this is a great hint, but now how do I get rid of the "Other..." icon in the login window?
10.4: Hide users from the login window via prefs
You're right -- I would like to clean up the login screen by removing the "other..." prompt. Apparently, it comes on automatically as soon as an account is hidden, but I prefer to use option-return to get the prompt boxes rather than having "other.." at the bottom of the list.

To prevent the Other... login from appearing use:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow \ SHOWOTHERUSERS_MANAGED -bool false
10.4: Hide users from the login window via prefs
I have the same problem, with the "other" user but when I use [CODE] sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow SHOWOTHERUSERS_MANAGED -bool false [/CODE] nothing changes, the "other" user is still sitting there.

These two lines get rid of the "Other..." icon in the login window and the fast-user-switching menu:

Above, cadmin was the name of the user I intended to hide. |
