How to enable auto login for Redhat 6.2 kernel 2.6.32, GNOME 2.28.2


Hi,
I'm newbie to linux, I have a need to run a test to shutdown/reboot a Server multiple times automatically but can not find commands to enable auto login.
Redhat 5.5 2.6.18 is OK just Redhat6.2, 2.6.32 that I am having problem with.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks/Vansky03

Open the /etc/gdm/custom.conf file and add the following two lines under the [daemon] tag:

Code:
[daemon]
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
AutomaticLogin=your_autologin_username
