Trusted Solaris Installation and Configuration

How to End a Session

Users can lock their screen or log out at the end of a session. Users authorized to shut down the workstation can halt it and reboot.


Note -

Users must log off or utilize the lockscreen functionality before leaving a workstation unattended. Otherwise a person may have access to the data of a user without having to pass identification and authentication, and that person would not be uniquely identified or accountable.


To Lock the Screen

    Left-click the padlock at the left of the middle section of the Front Panel.

To Log Out
  1. Right-click the workspace background and select Log out... from the Workspace Menu, or left-click the EXIT icon on the Front Panel.

  2. When prompted, confirm that you want to log out.

To Reboot the Workstation
  1. Right click the CDE front panel and select Shut Down from the TP (Trusted Path) menu.

    The menu appears when the user or role is authorized to shut down the workstation.

  2. Confirm the shutdown.

  3. Enter boot at the ok prompt or b at the > prompt:


    Type help for more information
    <#2> ok boot
    

    Type b (boot), c (continue), or n (new command mode)
    > b
    
  4. Return to the procedure and chapter you are working from.
