Mac OS X: Setting up Login, Startup items

Login items may be chosen in the System Preferences application. Once set up, a "login item" is one that opens automatically after you log into the computer. If you want a frequently used application, document, server's Internet Location file, or other item to open automatically after you log in to Mac OS X, then you can make it a login item.

Setting the UID in Mac OS X

Hello, Does anyone know the best way to create a user in Mac OS X with a specific UID? One (ugly) possibility seems to be to create the user, and then use netinfomanager to fix the UID, and then to run chown on all the user's files, but is there a more elegant way? Thanks, Noah (1 Reply)

NAME
CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Form::Login - validation for the login form DESCRIPTION
A HTML::FormHandler form for the login form. FIELDS
username password remember submit METHODS
validate add_auth_errors SEE ALSO
CatalystX::SimpleLogin::Controller::Login CUSTOMIZATION
By default, the params passed to authenticate() are 'username' and 'password'. If you need to use different names, then you'll need to set the correct value(s) via login_form_args in the configuration. The keys are 'authenticate_username_field_name' and/or 'authenticate_password_field_name'. __PACKAGE__->config( 'Controller::Login' => { login_form_args => { authenticate_username_field_name => 'name', authenticate_password_field_name => 'password2', }, }, ); You can also change the way that the form is displayed by setting attributes. In MyApp.pm: __PACKAGE__->config( 'Controller::Login' => { login_form_args => { login_error_message => 'Login failed', field_list => [ '+submit' => { value => 'Login' }, ] } }, ); Additional fields can be added: field_list => [ 'foo' => ( type => 'MyField' ), 'bar' => { type => 'Text' }, ] Additional arguments to the authenticate call can be added: If your user table has a column "status" and you want only those with "status = 'active'"to be able to log .in __PACKAGE__->config( 'Controller::Login' => { login_form_args => { authenticate_args => { status => 1 }, }, }, }; AUTHORS
