Disable Lock Screen

Post by nmrdukeman » 2018/04/05 15:12:43

Hi,
We have a Centos 5.10 linux box. I have tried to find out how to disable lock screen for every user even if an user tries to turn on the lock screen icon on his/her desktop window. Is there a command that I can use to achieve this?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Best, 8-)

CentOS 5 went End Of Life more than 1 year ago and you should be planning how to get off it and onto a newer version ASAP. It receives no security - or any other - updates and is steadily getting more and more dangerous to have around. In addition, you're not even running the last versions of anything as there was a 5.11 that was the last point release.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
