No password necessary for login to admin account
Having changed the language of Ubuntu from french to english, and have set the admin to login without a password, I have added a password to the admin account. However, at the login page, I am not prompted a password when logging in.
I am prompted for one on other non admin accounts, and I am also prompted it when accessing root privileges or when the admin password is needed for other reasons on the whole of ubuntu.
I have checked and I cannot find a light.dm file with any auto-login data. I cannot understand how I can disable auto-login.
