Disallow login using a fingerprint

Users with a fingerprint scanner can use their fingerprints instead of a password to log in. Fingerprint login needs to be set up by the user before it can be used.

Fingerprint readers are not always reliable, so you may wish to disable login using the reader for security reasons.

Disable login using a fingerprint reader:

  1. Kreu la profilon user, kiu enhavas la jenajn liniojn:

    /etc/dconf/profile/user

    user-db:user
system-db:local

    local estas la nomo de dconf datumbazo.

  2. Create the directory /etc/dconf/db/local.d/ if it does not already exist.

  3. Create the key file /etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-login to provide information for the local database.

    /etc/dconf/db/local.d/00-login

    # Specify the dconf path
[org/gnome/login-screen]

# Disable fingerprint reader
enable-fingerprint-authentication=false

  4. To prevent the user from overriding these settings, create the file /etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks/login with the following content:

    /etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks/fingerprintreader

    # List the keys used to configure login
/org/gnome/login-screen/enable-fingerprint-authentication

  5. Ĝisdatigu la sistemajn datumbazojn:

    # dconf update

  6. Uzantoj devas elsaluti kaj denove ensaluti antaŭ ol la tutsistemaj agordoj efektiviĝas.
