Re: How to Lock idle terminals automatically in VMS ?
Two names that come to mind are Hitman and Silver Bullet. Silver Bullet might have been on a DECUS tape, so you would have the source to fool with.
Digital declined to create such a product and said it was easy to create your own.
The hard part is deciding what your criteria are. If the user is running something in a subprocess, then the parent process may be idle. Etc.

Re: How to Lock idle terminals automatically in VMS ?
There are many ways to TRY to get it right from an external process, but all have various potentially nasty side effects.
Windowed environments can rely on screen lock, but you implement that on the display device, not OpenVMS.

Extremely unlikely. The usual mechanism is a process that polls the system for processes that appear to be idle and kills them.

What does a "locked terminal" look like?
