Restrict Access to console
« on: November 26, 2010, 12:30:00 AM »
Hi There,
I searched on the topic first but I couldn't find anything.

I am new and evaluating TC for a kiosk application, it will be located at a clients premises and while I think it is unlikely they will hook up a keyboard to it, I want to be as secure as possible.

How can I disable control-alt-f1 from going to a console session?
I wouldn't mind going to a console so long as you weren't automatically logged in as a user.
Do you know how to disable console altogether or to stop it being logged in when you switch to the text console?

I have thought of some ideas like remapping keys codes so that they don't work, but thought I would ask before going down a dumb track....

Any ideas?

Thanks
J.

Maybe the method I did suggest in this posting is suitable for your case.
