After we upgraded our CentOS 7.0 desktops to CentOS 7.1, a critical
error in the graphical login screen has appeared on all 7.1 machines:
We have 100+ users defined in /etc/passwd, and a list of names is
presented on the initial login screen. However, it's impossible to
scroll up or down in t
Can you use the page-down and arrow keys to navigate the list? Which Display
Manager ( [kxg]dm ) are you using? Try a different one if the keyboard
navigation does not work.
No, page up/down and arrows don't work either.

That doesn’t help me, as I have no users defined in the /etc/passwd
file, and the UIDs are defined in a corporate database that match
the employee number.

Isn't there a way to open a box for "other user"?
3. Disable the user list:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Desktop_Migration_and_Administration_Guide/customizing-login-screen.html
This, in fact, *is* the correct answer. That it's enabled is bad.

Thanks for the links, they are very informative.
So as I see currently the only way to check if there are any security
updates available for Centos is to parse the errata info sent by email to
Centos Announce? :D
Does anyone have another solution implemented? :) Any help will be very
appreciated

I mentioned two other workarounds myself. I prefer to wait for the
upstream bug to be solved:
https://bugzilla.redhat
The thread on the CentOS 7.1 user login screen reminded me of a small nagging
issue I have on CentOS 6. We are using a Windows AD backend to authenticate
users on our CentOS 6 systems. When a system is built, and nobody has yet
logged into it, you have to enter your username in the login scree
This is an upstream bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1184802
Great, thanks for the info! Now we just need a bug fix :-)

Aside from the annoyance of having all local users listed on the login
screen we have noticed with CentOS7 using NIS and NFS home directories
that once a user authenticates their home directory is automatically
mounted on boot, even after rebooting and disabling the list using

Can you use the page-down and arrow keys to navigate the list? Which Display
