LapLink MN-LGD011-XX-US manual Configuring a host for locking

Disabling the host keyboard and mouse and blanking its screen

From a guest computer, you can ensure privacy and prevent interruptions at the host by disabling its keyboard and mouse and blanking its screen. To perform any of these “locking” operations from the guest, click the appropriate command on the Session menu. On the host, you must allow locking by changing the default security setup.

On the host: Allow users to blank the screen and disable the keyboard and mouse when you grant them access through the Log-in List.

On the guest: Blank the host screen and disable its keyboard and mouse through the Session menu.

Configuring a host for locking

You can configure a host to determine who can lock it and how it will be locked. Guests cannot lock the host without

your permission, and locking privileges you grant cannot be changed during a Remote Control session.

Whether you permit any kind of locking depends on how you intend to use LapLink. If you want to use Text Chat, for example, there should be no locking.
