How to Remove Guest Session and Remote Login from Ubuntu 13.04

Question

In the login screen, I see Guest Session and Remote Login.

I don't want these option, How can i remove them from my system and login screen both.

Answer 1

For Guest Session:

• How do I disable the guest session?

For Remote Login:

1. Open a terminal.

2. Run the following commands:

   sudo -i                           # to have root privileges
   gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf   # to edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file
   

3. Add this line to the end of the file:

   greeter-show-remote-login=false
   

4. Save the file and close it.

5. Restart lightdm service (from tty1 with sudo service lightdm restart) or restart computer.

Answer 2

For remote login, uninstall:

remote-login-service
lightdm-remote-session-freerdp
lightdm-remote-session-uccsconfigure

This will prevent to be prompted to keep/replace your tweaked /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf when an update to the remote-login-service will be plublished.... because this way, you won't [need to] edit it to make the option disappear from the greeter.
