A "general" tutorial is unlikely to be useful to you (or you'd figure
out your answers from "man X"). :-)

I suspect you'll find a more specific tutorial helpful.

What Display Manager are you running?
eg. xdm, gdm, kdm etc.

Hint: look in /etc/init.d

What release of Debian are you running?

Cheers
