automatically logging in?


How would i set up my server to automatically log in to debian as user so i can remove its keyboard, mouse and screen? Or are all the daemons (apache, nfs...) fully workable without logging in? Thanks

Daemons are started without logging in. When you build a server, you can installl sshd, so you can remotely login on your machine (to make configuration changes for example). You don't need a monitor, keyboard or mouse on your server to do that.
