Hi everyone,

Awhile back I installed Citrix from within the MX Linux package manager. I never used it and so a couple of weeks later I went to uninstall Citrix the same way as I installed it. No problem there. However, when I log out of the machine then there's a citrixlog user available to log back in. Haven't tried that either since I had already deleted citrix and since I only noticed by accident way later that the citrixlog user was there.

Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of that login entry? I have read on the citrix site until my eyes bled but can't find anything specifically related to removal of the citrixlog user. It's an automatically generated account and lightdm has nothing to do with that (except for the fact that citrixlog user shows up there). I've removed the cache directory and rebooted the system, but that didn't help either.
I'd really like to remove that friggen entry since it doesn't belong to my system.

Thanks.

Geeezus, sometimes it's just too easy to feel like an idiot when you have a tool at your disposal that you're just not thinking about due to a lack of usage. Got into the MX user manager, chose to delete a user account, namely the citrixlog account, logged out of the system and then back in again ... PROBLEM SOLVED ... the citrixlog user is gone.

Let this be a lesson to myself and anyone else who forgets about the wonderful MX User Manager within the MX Tools section.

Hi,

My solution was to edit /etc/passwd file to set the 'citrixlog' not to able to log in - therefore it won't be shown at the login user list. At the same time the user is still there, in case Citrix needs it.

sudo nano /etc/passwd

## then search for the 'citrixlog' user and comment out the line, add the second one, save, done:

#citrixlog:x:1001:1001::/var/log/citrix:/bin/sh
citrixlog:x:1001:1001:citrix user,,,/var/log/citrix:/usr/sbin/nologin
