Session and user management

Sun Nov 06, 2016 8:27 pm
Ok I've searched here, googled, and went through every setting but I can't find a way in KDE Neon to limit new users or sessions. What I want to do is have 2 users on the system, my wife and I, but no new users able to log in to Neon and no option to allow it. In Kubuntu this was easily configured through user manager. But Neon is missing the settings that Kubuntu has for preventing new users creating their own setup. When logging in there should be only 2 choices, me and her. Any idea if I'm missing something?

I think I can use a conf file to control users but wondering if there's something in the KDE interface that will let me do it?

Nevermind....did some more searching and found that I can use Apt to install gnome-system-tools from Ubuntu repos and get the functionality I wanted. I keep forgetting this is Ubuntu with KDE on top. ;D
