One user may lock his or her session(s) while still +allowing other users to use the system on other virtual consoles. + +If desired, the entire console may be locked and virtual console switching +disabled. + +On machines that support "Magic SysRq" (enabled via a compile-time option +and /etc/sysctl.conf setting) users that lock all VT's on the machine must +be members of the "wheel" group. Note that 12.0's stock kernels include +support for the SysRq key. |
