Hello,
my system: CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core) , kernel 3.10.0-862.14.4.el7.x86_64
# rpm -qa | grep sddm
sddm-0.14.0-3.el7.x86_64
sddm-themes-0.14.0-3.el7.noarch

on my system there are thousand of users (via LDAP): how can I enable SDDM to display the icaons for only a very few of them ?
in /etc/sddm.conf there is the "HideUsers" option but I can't list there thousand of accounts, and it doesn't accept wildcards
BTW the other accounts that I want to exclude from sddm need anyway be able to access the system via ssh.

There are "MinimumUid" and "MaxmimumUid" but unfortunately the few accounts I would like to select are not in a consecutive id range.
As an alternative: is there a way for sddm to look for only local accounts, and not the LDAP ones ?

One more question: is there a way to display the hostname wih the default, embedded theme ?

Thank you very much in advance for your help,
and Cheers
