Re: keyboard lock

man lock
lock and then enter the key. But from another terminal with root login, you can kill locked terminal.

Re: keyboard lock

hi Fauziah,
1.) if ur session locked after Time out (TMOUT), u cannot unlock it. admins or super users can change ur session TMOUT time.
2.) when u go for tea, you may want to lock ur session.
issue the command: "lock"
it will ask u a "key" and once again for conformation. and when u type the key again, it will unlock ur session.

Re: keyboard lock

ctrl+break or ctrl+reset is the key strokes if you are referring to the KEYBOARD being locked.
