Good Afternoon,
I have come across an issue that I am struggling to resolve, I have searched the forums and cant seem find anything on them regarding this specific topic. So apologies if this has been discussed before and .
I have set up a group policy to automatically lock all screens after 5 minutes of inactivity. (Computer Configuration>Policies>Windows Settings>Security Settings>Local Policies>Security Options>Interactive logon: Machine inactivity limit)
Domain server is Windows 2012 R2.
All the windows 10 machines will adhere to this and lock after 5 minutes of inactivity. The issue lies in the remote desktop.
We have 3 terminal servers running (Server 2012 R2) Which have picked up the above settings and show 5 Mins (300 seconds). However, they are locking after 3 minutes (I have timed it on multiple users accounts on all 3 servers).
I have then tried changing the policy on the domain server to 10 mins (600 seconds) as a test, but they still lock after 3 minutes. The windows 10 machines change to 10 minutes and function as should.
Has anyone come across this before or have any suggestions on how to resolve.
Thanks
