I want to disable guest session in ubuntu 14.04. I did that in 12.04 before, however I can't find /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf as in 12.04.

I think 14.04 might replace it with /etc/lightdm/users.conf, which has the following code:

[UserAccounts]

minimum-uid=500

hidden-users=nobody nobody4 noaccess

hidden-shells=/bin/false /usr/sbin/nologin

Should I change hidden-users= to hidden-users=guest?

@Jobin: Actually, that answer is not up to date for 14.04. So it makes sense to not see this question as a duplicate. – Gunnar Hjalmarsson Apr 14 '14 at 04:16
@GunnarHjalmarsson: This answer in the original question deals with the issue in 14.04. – jobin Apr 14 '14 at 04:17
@Jobin: Okej, okej. ;) (Not very easily found, though.) – Gunnar Hjalmarsson Apr 14 '14 at 04:19
Instructions for this is included in the 14.04 documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-help/shell-guest-session.html#disable – Gunnar Hjalmarsson Apr 14 '14 at 04:14
