Re: Automatic Log Off When User Is Idle For more than 15mins

I have tried the lock but the other users can't logon to that machine if they
need to use it. Instead I am faced with the following problem;

1) Users who want to use the computer when a user forgets to log off and
doesn't have any intention to use it, are left with locked screens.

2) Unlocked was diabled so users could log off those users and then logon
themselves. This posed a security risk.

I would so much appreciate it if you could help thank you.
