You are not logged in.
I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, apologies if it is not.
I was hoping to set something up so that under certain conditions (tapping my phone to a nfc sticker) that I could ssh to my machine and log trigger a particular user to log in. Under normal circumstances I want the box to boot up with no user logged in and requires a password to login. However I hope to be able to login through the desktop manager for a particular user remotely.
Can I SSH to the machine and somehow trigger via commands for a particular user to log in?
With lightdm, it seems like it can be controlled via dm-tool but I struggle to figure out exactly how to get this to work.
If there is a different desktop manager which can accomplish this easier I would like to know.
If this fails, is it possible to set up auto login to only trigger on bootup if certain conditions were met? autologin seems to be all or nothing.
