Administering user accounts

Locking or unlocking a terminal

A terminal refers to the device file associated with the user login session (for example, /dev/tty01 or /dev/ttyp00).

Use the Terminal Manager located in the System directory of the SCOadmin hierarchy. To lock and unlock a terminal, respectively, select Lock or Unlock. When the prompt appears for the terminal, enter the name, (for example: tty01). When a terminal is locked, this message is displayed when an attempt is made to log in:

   Terminal is disabled -- see Authentication Administrator
