Yea the first time i booted up my RedHat a login screen came up. It looked like a windows login screen kinda. But since i am new at this i didnt kno the username so i restarted my comp. The second time i start my comp with linux the DHCP login rhing came up. Its like workin in dos. I have to do all the commands and trype like startx and stuff also my gnome doesnt work as it should. How can i get my old login screenn back?

I think you are talking about having X Server
running at the boottime. To do that, you
need to edit your /etc/iniitab and change
the value 3 to 5 (xdm),

x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon
