Objectives

 

A new feature was added to image 6.5.3 and later allowing an automatic device Log-Off once a user performs Log-Off from all sessions. This document explains how to enable this feature and what its benefits are.

Procedures

1. Go to: Start -> Settings -> Desktop -> Shell & Desktop tab
2. Check the option: "After user logged off from all sessions, perform device Log-Off", as shown below.
   
   
   
3. This feature is especially useful when using the Domain Authentication feature.

For example:

• A user logs on to a device using his domain credentials.
• If pass trough authentication is enabled, all the sessions opened from now on will use these credentials.
• Once the user finished working in the session he logs off from the server – but he's still logged on to the device.
• In this scenario anyone who opens a session from this device will be using the domain credentials of the first user.
• To prevent this from happening, the automatic Log-Off feature should be enabled.

Note: This feature works only with Desktop sessions and should not be used when users connect to Published Applications / PNAgent.
