Show list of users on wake

Is it possible (probably with a defaults write command) to have Mac OS 10.6 show a list of users on wake from sleep instead of a username and password window?

I would like for users to be encouraged to use a guest account when the computer wakes up.

Thank you
 
Open System Preferences/Accounts,

click on the small padlock at bottom
left and type in your password,

select list of users to the right of
display login window as.
 
Yes but that's for when you log in. When the system wakes from sleep, it still shows the username and password field. You have to click on switch user to get back to the list of names.

I would like it to show the list of names by default.

Thanks
 
The account in use when the computer goes into sleep mode will be still be logged in when waking from sleep mode, so the computer has to be logged in to the guest account if you want it to wake logged into guest.


***guest account requires no password***

login name:guest
password:guest

*when a guest user logs out, all information and files in the guest account's home folder are erased.

***Be sure to also use parental controls to limit what files and applications the guest account can access!***
