How do I disable guest login in 11.10 with lightdm?

Asked by Mannex

It seems that having a guest login is a possible security problem. Is there any way to disable it?

Thanks. I added this line:

allow-guest=false

to the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file. Must restart computer so that lightdm reloads (i.e. logout isn't enough).
