Re: System Preferences has replaced the control panel - (m)

    Each application has a help (directions) on the menu bar - there are
    no paper manuals other than something like OS X for Dummies (you can
    get it at your local library or book store).

    From Sytem Preferences -> Help:

    Changing the way users log in
    You can set up your computer to ask for a password when users log
    in, and you can set up automatic login, which automatically logs in
    a specified user each time the computer starts up.

    If you require users to log in using passwords, you can choose what
    they see when they log in. The login window can show a list of users
    with a picture next to each name and a space to type their password,
    or it can require users to type both their user name and password.

    Open System Preferences and click Accounts.

    If some settings are dimmed, click the lock icon and type an
    administrator name and password.
    Click Login Options.
    Select the way you want users to log in (a list of users or a dialog
    asking for their name and password).
    Select "Automatically log in as" if you want the computer to log one
    user in automatically each time it starts up.
    Then choose the
    user from the pop-up menu and enter the user's password when prompted.
    If you turn automatic login on for yourself, the computer opens your
    account when it starts up. If you log out, other users see a login
    window to log into their user accounts.

    IMPORTANT:
    Be very careful when setting up automatic login. If
    you turn on automatic login for yourself, another user can restart
    the computer and have instant access to your user account when the
    computer starts up again

    N.
