Active directory and screen lockout

Question

I work for a production organization and we have a number of terminal screen's that our on-the-floor employees use to send ordering info, clock in/out and so on. I am looking for a way to set these machines to never log out or go to a lock screen. I have disabled about everything in windows and much googling can not find a way to stop them from logging out after inactivity. Is there something in active directory users and computers or GPO that I can setup or change?

Answer 1

Create a new GPO then edit it and go to: Computer Config>Policies>Windows Settings>Security Settings>Local Policies>Security Options and find Interactive logon: Machine inactivity limit

this should work for limit the time of a user session in a machine without interactions

Answer 2

we have a number of terminal screen's

Are you asking about remote desktop?

Answer 3

Nope each computer is its own workstation but with the same login/domain user. so something like user- rds pass- rds
Once the screen times out you have to enter the login info again this is what I am trying to stop from happening. All terminal screens are connected to our local domain.

Answer 4

Ok, well that sounds like you may just need to turn off the secure screensaver

Im sorry but I have done this on all of them and still logging out after inactivity. That's why I'm thinking of something in active directory I can set?
