Group policy-based configuration

Group policy can be used to automatically configure the log off settings across a fleet of machines. Installing the application will also install the group policy definition (ADMX) file. When you open the group policy management console, you will see the Administrative Templates\Lithnet\IdleLogoff section.

This section contains a single setting - Log off inactive users.

  • If you enable this setting, then the agent will be activated and will log users off at the time you specify.
  • If you disable the setting, then the agent will be disabled and will not log users off automatically.
  • If you leave it as ‘not configured’, then whatever the local administrator of the PC has manually configured will take effect.

Group policy will always override whatever has been set locally.
