I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS for a week only. First, there was a password. Then I made the setting 'log in without a password.' After 2 days I again made a password. It is required for authentication nd installing apps. But when I log in to ubuntu, its not needed ! I can log in without it. There's no option for password. Btw, I turned automatic login off, and changed the password several times but no result come out. What can I do ?

Your account probably is in the nopasswdlogin group. Enter this command:

sudo gpasswd -d $USER nopasswdlogin 

Enter it just the way it is. No need to replace anything. However, don't log in as root to do this because then $USER will not be your user name (like when you use your normal user account and sudo) but root.
