How to enable auto-login

I have a new iMac with multiple user accounts setup. The computer won't let me use or enable automatic login from the "Users & Groups" section of preferences. I've even gone to the security preferences and it doesn't give me the option to "enable" auto login. What else can I do? Is this happening because I have multiple users on the iMac?
