cancelled those and subscribed to send this.)

Hello!  I just wanted to give you a heads up that a new feature hit last 
week in Ubuntu, called Remote Login.

(I'm sorry, I had thought I was supposed to notify ubuntu-doc after the 
fact, instead of before landing it.  My fault, but hopefully this is 
early enough that it doesn't cause pain.  Can always disable again if 
necessary.)

Ted talks about it in a blog here: 
http://gould.cx/ted/blog/Desktop_in_the_cloud

To disable it, you must set
greeter-show-remote-login=false
in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

Or use lightdm-set-defaults.

Thanks!
