Enable auto login with Debian

By default Debian has no auto login. Every time user has to login. I tried this method with Debian 9 XFCE desktop. The user can disable it by using below steps.

Open following file,

sudo mousepad /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/01_debian.conf

Add following lines to the bottom of the file,

[SeatDefaults]
autologin-user=username
autologin-user-timeout=0


Replace the user name in the second line.

Save and Close the file.
