[ubuntu] /usr/sbin/nologin & GUI login topic






I've an account with /usr/bin/nologin as the login shell.
If I try to su to that account, I get the message
"This account is currently not available"
as expected...

However I can still login to that account from the GUI screen and the account even gets its own desktop.
Removing the account home folder prevents GUI login; but this creates another set of problems such as applications failing to launch.

How do I prevent GUI login for this account?

Thank you
