Auto login from CLI in 10.9

[myronjoffe]

Im trying to create an auto login user in 10.9.
It worked in 10.8 but doesn't seem to work in 10.9. I've created a pkg with the following files but no luck:
/etc/kcpassword
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist

I have also tried Per Olofsson's createuserpkg which creates the account but does not autologin the user.

Any ideas?

Used pkg with the following files: /etc/kcpassword
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist combined with MCX makes it work in 10.9

Can you share the keys for loginwindow and MCX please?

I would like to see your setup with the loginwindow.plist and your mcx. Thanks!
