Is there a way to disable the keyboard using a login script?
We are new to REXX and need help. We are creating a script to automatically log a user in based on their location and would like to disable the keyboard so a user cannot break the script by pressing a key and changing the input values.
Anyone know if this is possible?

did You consider that when the rexx runs the user is already logged on ?

Actually, I suspect the topic starter wants to auto start a session using the terminal emulator. He should consult the terminal emulator's program documentation for more realistic information.

It is an auto log in process and the I found the code I was looking for was Keyboard("Lock"), well at least in the emulator version I am using. Thanks!

No such keyword in Clist or Rexx so I suppose it must be an emulator script. Moving to the Emulator section.
