Having an issue with Windows10 using the HP Lights-out remote console. With the remote console being the “active” window on my Win10 desktop, If I do a ctrl-alt-del to lock my workstation, the ctrl-alt-del command is being sent to the SLES 12 SP2 console.
This causes SLES 12 to trigger the “Power off” screen where the I have 30 seconds to choose… Power off(default), restart or cancel. The system powers off in 30 seconds unless I click on Cancel.
As I was locking my screen in windows, I was perplexed that my system kept shutting down until one day I hit ctrl-alt-del to lock my workstation and then clicked cancel.
That’s when I noticed the ctrl-alt-del command was being sent to the remote console.
Question is: How can I modify SLES 12 so that ctrl-alt-del does not cause the “Power off” menu to be invoked?
In Yast, I set Security and Users/ Security Center and hardening / Boot settings > Interpretation of Crtl+Alt+Del to “ignore”… but that has not stopped the behavior.
“man system.special” tells a bit about ctrl-alt-del.target … But there is not enough information for me to go on.
Looking for some assistance…

Hi and welcome to the Forum
AFAIK this isn’t used in SLE 12… If it was/is you can mask a service (systemctl mask so it heads of to /dev/null instead.
Suggest you just change your method as Super key+L is the direct method to lock the screen…
So there is no configuration option in L.o.M setup to disable this?
