[CentOS] Disable login at boot

[Billy Crook]

You know I have a couple machines I use that might fit that description.
They autologin to gnome and autostart firefox pointed at say, a cacti page.

When I need to change the url, I update the script that launches Firefox,
and and restart X, all over ssh.  There's no keyboard or mouse on the
remote machine, but there is a monitor.  I don't know that I'd call it
headless.  But it's definitely remotely administered, and still has a
screen enabled.

What a fun guessing game.
