While xlock is running, all new server connections are refused. The screen saver is disabled. The mouse cursor is turned off. The screen is blanked and a changing pattern is put on the screen. If a key or a mouse button is pressed then the user is prompted for the password of the user who started xlock. 2 If the correct password is typed, then the screen is unlocked and the X server is restored. When typing the password Control-U and Control-H are active as kill and erase respectively. To return to the locked screen, click in the small icon version of the changing pattern. 2 In the lower part of the password screen a text is displayed. This message is taken from the first file of the following that exists: $HOME/.xlocktext, $HOME/.plan, or $HOME/.signature. 2 On systems which support new BSD style authentication, the password may be prefixed by an authentication style followed by a colon (i.e. "style:password"). See the login.conf(5) for more information on authentication styles. 2 NOTE_ON ETIQUETTE 2 Xlock should not be used on public terminals when there is a high demand for them. 2 If you find a public terminal that has been locked by another user and there are no other terminals available, and the terminal appears to have been left idle for a while (normally more than 15 minutes), it is fair to try to reset the session in some manner. 2 OPTIONS -help Print options and a brief description to standard out- put. -version Print version number (if >= 4.00) to standard output. -resources Print default resource file to standard output. -display displayname The display option sets the X11 display to lock. xlock locks all available screens on a given server, and res- tricts you to locking only a local server such as unix:0, localhost:0, or :0 unless you set the -remote option. -visual visualname visualname which is one of "StaticGray", "GrayScale", "StaticColor", "PseudoColor", "TrueColor", "DirectColor", or "default". default used to set the screen's default visual (the visual of the root win- dow). -name resourcename resourcename is used instead of XLock when looking for resources to configure xlock. -mode modename As of this writing there are over 90 display modes sup- ported (plus one more for random selection of one of these). ant Shows Langton's and Turk's generalized ants. ant3d Shows 3D ants. apollonian Shows Apollonian Circles. atlantis Shows moving sharks/whales/dolphin.

It simply sets the number of microseconds to delay between batches of animations. In blank mode, it is important to set this to some small number of seconds, because the keyboard and mouse are only checked after each delay, so you cannot set the delay too high, but a delay of zero would needlessly consume cpu checking for mouse and keyboard input in a tight loop, since blank mode has no work to do. -count num The batchcount option sets number of things to do per batch to num .

In bomb mode it means the number of minutes to autolo- gout. A negative count allows for randomness. The range from the minimum allowed nonnegative count for a particular mode to the ABS( count ) (or maximum allowed count , whichever is less). -batchcount num The batchcount option is deprecated but should still work as count. -cycles num The cycles option sets the number of cycles until time out for ant, ant3d, apollonian, blot, braid, bug, clock, crystal, daisy, deco, demon, dilemma, discrete, dragon, eyes, fiberlamp, flag, flow, forest, galaxy, helix, hop, hyper, ico, juggle, laser, life, life1d, life3d, lisa, lissie, loop, mandelbrot, mountain, petal, sierpinski, shape, spline +erase, t3d, thorn- bird, triangle, tube, voters, wator, and wire. For euler2d and worm it is the length of the lines, for atlantis it is the shark speed, for fadeplot, julia and spiral it is the length of the trail of dots, munch it is the minimum size of the squares, for kaleid it is the % of black, for qix it is the number of lines, for spline -erase it means the number of splines * 64 (for compatibility with +erase), for gears it is the number of degrees to increment the spin of each gear by, for glplanet it is the number of hundredth degrees to rotate the planet by, for molecule it is the time in seconds until timeout, for pipes it is the number of systems to draw before clearing the screen, for rubik it is the number of steps to complete a 90 move, for sballs it is the sphere speed value, for scooter it is the speed, for superquadrics it is the number of frames it takes to morph from one shape to another. for text3d it is the number of times drawing a word before the next one, For others it means nothing. -size num The size option sets the size maximum size of a star in bouboule, pyro and star, size of ball in ball and bounce, size of bat in bat, maximum size of bubble in bubble, size of clock in clock, minimum size of rectan- gles in deco, size of the polygons in crystal, tik_tak, and toneclock, size of polyhedron in ico, size of lis- sie in lissie, size of dots of flag, for kaleid it is the symmetry, width of maze hallway, size of side of penrose tile, radius of loop in lisa, radius of ball in roll, number of corners in sierpinski, number of stars in scooter, size of tube in tube, width of worm in worm, line width in rotor, size of cells in ant, bug, dilemma, dragon, life, life1d, pacman, petri, tetris, voters, wator, and wire. In pipes it is the maximum length of a system. In flow and swarm it is the length of the lines. In atlantis it is the shark size. A negative number allows for randomness, similar to count. In atunnels, fire, gears, sballs and sproingies it is the size of the screen (default 400), this is because on many slow systems it runs too slow when the picture covers the full screen. Set to 0 for full screen on fast machines. -ncolors num The ncolors option sets the maximum number of colors to be used. -saturation value The saturation option sets saturation of the color ramp used to value . 0 is grayscale and 1 is very rich color. 0.4 is a nice pastel. -erasemode modename As of this writing there are over 12 erase modes sup- ported (if its not chosen its assumed random). The erase modes are random_lines, random_squares, venetian, triple_wipe, quad_wipe, circle_wipe, three_circle_wipe, squaretate, fizzle, spiral, slide_lines, losira, no_fade. modename is now similar to the option model- ist where you can it can be something like "all-losira" to get all erasemodes but losira. Use a "+" or a "," to add modes like "spiral+venetian". -erasedelay usecs The erasedelay option sets the number of microseconds for steps of the erasemode (a setting of 0 and the erasemode is bypassed). +/-nolock The nolock option causes xlock to only draw the pat- terns and not lock the display. A key press or a mouse click will terminate the screen saver. -/+inwindow Runs xlock in a window, so that you can iconify, move, or resize it and still use your screen for other stuff. When running in a window, xlock no longer locks your screen, it just looks good. -/+inroot Runs xlock in your root window. Like the inwindow option it no longer locks the screen, it just looks good. -/+remote The remote option tells xlock to not stop you from locking remote X11 servers. This option should be used with care and is intended mainly to lock X11 terminals which cannot run xlock locally. If you lock someone else's workstation, they will have to know your pass- word to unlock it. Using +remote overrides any resource derived values for remote and prevents xlock from being used to lock other X11 servers. (Use `+' instead of `-' to override resources for other options that can take the `+' modifier similarly.) -/+mono The mono option causes xlock to display monochrome, (black and white) pixels rather than the default colored ones on color displays. -/+allowaccess This option is required for servers which do not allow clients to modify the host access control list. It is also useful if you need to run x clients on a server which is locked for some reason... When allowaccess is true, the X11 server is left open for clients to attach and thus lowers the inherent security of this lock screen. A side effect of using this option is that if xlock is killed -KILL, the access control list is not lost. -vtlock modename This option is used on a XFree86 system to manage VT switching in [off|noswitch|switch|restore] mode. off means no VT switch locking. switch means VT switch locking + switching to xlock VT when activated. restore means VT switch locking + switching to xlock VT when activated + switching back to previous VT when desactivated. noswitch means VT switch locking only when xlock VT is active. -/+allowroot The allowroot option allows the root password to unlock the server as well as the user who started xlock. May not be able to turn this on and off depending on your system and how xlock was configured. -/+debug Allows xlock to be debugged by doing all but locking the screen. -/+description The description option causes xlock shows a mode description above password window. The default is to show this description. -/+echokeys The echokeys option causes xlock to echo '?' characters (default) for each key typed into the password prompt. Some consider this a security risk, so the default is to not echo anything. -echokey echokey The text character to use for echo key in echokeys . -/+enablesaver By default xlock will disable the normal X server's screen saver since it is in effect a replacement for it. Since it is possible to set delay parameters long enough to cause phosphor burn on some displays, this option will turn back on the default screen saver which is very careful to keep most of the screen black. -/+resetsaver By default xlock will call XResetScreenSaver. This may be undesirable with DPMS monitors. -/+grabmouse The grabmouse option causes xlock to grab the mouse and keyboard, this is the default. xlock can not lock the screen without this. -/+grabserver The grabserver option causes xlock to grab the server. This is not usually needed but some unsecure X servers can be defeated without this. -/+install Allows xlock to install its own colormap if xlock runs out of colors. May not work on with some window managers (fvwm) and does not work with the -inroot option. -/+mousemotion Allows you to turn on and off the sensitivity to the mouse to bring up the password window. -/+sound Allows you to turn on and off sound if installed with the capability. -/+timeelapsed Allows you to find out how long a machine is locked so you can complain to an administrator that someone is hogging a machine. -/+usefirst The usefirst option causes xlock to use the keystroke which got you to the password screen as the first character in the password. The default is to ignore the first key pressed. -/+verbose Verbose mode, tells what options it is going to use. -nice nicelevel The nice option sets system nicelevel of the xlock pro- cess to nicelevel . -lockdelay seconds The lockdelay option sets the number of seconds before the screen needs a password to be unlocked. Good for use with an autolocking mechanism like xautolock(1). -timeout seconds The timeout option sets the number of seconds before the password screen will time out. -font fontname The font option sets the font to be used on the prompt screen. -planfont fontname option sets the font to be used for the text that is displayed in the lower part of the password screen. -fg color The fg option sets the color of the text on the pass- word screen to color . -bg color The bg option sets the color of the background on the password screen to color . -foreground color The foreground option sets the color of the text on the password screen to color . -background color The background option sets the color of the background on the password screen to color . -username string Text string is shown in front of user name, defaults to "Name: ". -password string Text string is the password prompt string, defaults to "Password: ". -info string Text string is an informational message to tell the user what to do, defaults to "Enter password to unlock; select icon to lock.". -validate string Text string is a message shown while validating the password, defaults to "Validating login..." -invalid string Text string is a message shown when password is invalid, defaults to "Invalid login." -geometry geom The geometry option sets geom the size and offset of the lock window (normally the entire screen). The entire screen format is still used for entering the password. The purpose is to see the screen even though it is locked. This should be used with caution since many of the modes will fail if the windows are far from square or are too small (size must be greater than 0x0). This should also be used with -enablesaver to protect screen from phosphor burn. -icongeometry geom The icongeometry option sets geom the size of the iconic screen (normally 64x64) seen when entering the password. This should be used with caution since many of the modes will fail if the windows are far from square or are too small (size must be greater than 0x0). The greatest size is 256x256. There should be some limit so users could see who has locked the screen. Position information of icon is ignored. -glgeometry geom The glgeometry option sets geom the size of the screen for gl modes. Not normally available or needed. -/+wireframe Turn on/off wireframe, available on ant3d, atlantis, atunnels, daisy, fire, gears, lament, life3d, mountain, sballs, sproingies, superquadrics, and triangle. -/+showfps Turn on/off frame per sec display, available on atlantis, atunnels, bubble3d, cage, fire, gears, invert, lament, moebius, morph3d, rubik, sballs, stairs, and superquadrics. -/+fpstop Turn on/off frame per sec display on top of screen, used if showfps is on. -fpsfont fontname The fpsfont option sets the font to be used in the frame per sec display, used if showfps is on. -/+use3d Turn on/off 3d view, available on bouboule, pyro, star, and worm. -delta3d value Space between the center of your 2 eyes for 3d mode. -none3d color Color used for empty size in 3d mode. -right3d color Color used for right eye in 3d mode. -left3d color Color used for left eye in 3d mode. -both3d color Color used for overlapping images for left and right eye in 3d mode. -program programname The program option sets the program to be used as the fortune generator. Currently used only for marquee and nose modes. -messagesfile formatted-filename The messagesfile option sets the file to be used as the fortune generator. The first entry is the number of fortunes, the next line contains the first fortune. Fortunes begin with a "%%" on a line by itself. Currently used only for marquee and nose modes. If one exists, it takes precedence over the fortune program. -messagefile filename The messagefile option sets the file whose contents are displayed. Currently used only for marquee and nose modes. If one exists, it takes precedence over the fortune program and messagesfile. -message textstring The message option sets the text to be displayed in a mode. Currently used only for flag, marquee and nose modes. If one exists, it takes precedence over the fortune program, messagesfile and message. -messagefont fontname The messagefont option sets the font to be used in the mode. Currently used only for flag, marquee, and nose modes. -bitmap filename The bitmap option sets the xbm, xpm, or ras file to be displayed with flag, image, life, life1d, maze, or puz- zle mode. For eyes and pacman only a xbm file is accepted. Certain modes reject the bitmap if too big. / 2 MORE_OPTIONS (these may not be available) -cpasswd crypted-password The cpasswd option sets the key to be this text string to unlock xlock instead of password file. -forceLogout minutes The forceLogout option sets minutes to auto-logout. -logoutButton minutes The logoutButton option sets minutes to logoutButton is available on password screen. -logoutButtonLabel string Text string is a message shown inside logout button when logout button is displayed. Defaults to "Logout". -logoutButtonHelp string Text string is a message shown outside logout button when logout button is displayed. Defaults to "Click the \"Logout\" button to log out current\n user and make workstation available." -logoutFailedString string Text string is a message shown when a logout is attempted and fails. Defaults to "Logout attempt FAILED.\n Current user could not be automatically logged out." -/+dtsaver Turn on/off CDE Saver Mode. This option is only avail- able if CDE support was compiled in. -modulepath path The modulepath option sets the directories that xlock searches for mode modules to load. It is a colon separated list of directories to search. If "%S" is included in the path, it is replaced by the default modulepath. To add a private module directory to the default path, use something like '%S:~/mymoduledir' as the path. This option is only available if module sup- port was compiled in. -locksound string Text string references sound to use at lock time. Default sound, male voice: "Thank you, for your cooperation." -infosound string Text string references sound to use for information. Default sound, male voice: "Identify please." -validsound string Text string references sound to when a password is valid. Default sound, female voice: "Complete." -invalidsound string Text string references sound to when a password is invalid. Default sound, female voice: "I am not pro- grammed to give you that information." -startCmd string Text string command to execute when the screen is locked. Commonly used instructions include: "zaway". This command, if still running when the screensaver exits, will be killed. -endCmd string Text string command to execute when the screen is unlocked. -pipepassCmd string Text string command into which to pipe the password when the screen is unlocked. -logoutCmd string Text string command to execute when the program logs the user out (either via the autologout or by pressing the logout button). -mailCmd string Text string command to execute when the program to check mail. -mailIcon string Text string of file for the "mail arrived" bitmap. -nomailIcon string Text string of file for the "no mail" bitmap. -dpmsstandby seconds Allows one to set DPMS Standby for monitor (0 is defined as infinite). (Horizontal sync on, Vertical sync off, RGB guns off, power supply on, tube filaments energized, (screen saver mode). Typical 17 inch screen... 110 out of 120 watts with a 3 sec recovery time.) This option is only available if DPMS support was compiled in. -dpmssuspend seconds Allows one to set DPMS Suspend for monitor (0 is defined as infinite). (Horizontal sync off, Vertical sync on, RGB guns off, power supply off, tube filaments energized. Typical 17 inch screen ... 15 out of 120 watts with a 3 sec recovery time.) This option is only available if DPMS support was compiled in. -dpmsoff seconds Allows one to set DPMS Power Off for monitor (0 is defined as infinite). (Horizontal sync off, Vertical sync off, Small auxiliary circuit stays on to monitor the HS/VS signals to enable power on when data needs to be displayed on the screen. Typical 17 inch screen ... 5 out of 120 watts with a 10 sec recovery time.) This option is only available if DPMS support was compiled in. 2 SPECIAL_MODE DEPENDENT OPTIONS -neighbors num The neighbors option sets the number of neighbors of a cell to 3, 4, 6, 9 (may not have real mathematical meaning), or 12 for several automata modes (ant, bug, demon, dilemma, life, loop, and wire) (bug and loop do not span this full range). Setting it to 0 typically randomizes this, except where bitmaps are used (dilemma, life, voters, and wator). -/+eyes Turn on and off eyes for ant, ant3d, and bug. -/+cycle Turn on and off colour cycling in crystal, lyapunov, mandelbrot, starfish, swirl, tetris, and tube. -/+label Turn on and off alternate space and number labeling in apollonian.

This may not be available depending on how xlock was configured. -rule <rule> The rule string is defined as S<neighborhood>/B<neighborhood> for life and life3d. Special parameters: P, picks a random rule from all rules that have known patterns; G, picks a random rule from all rules that have known gliders. For life a good example is Conway's rule which is S23/B3. Others are B36/S23 and B3678/S34678. For life3d good examples are Bay's rules which are S45/B5, S567/B6, S56/B5, and S67/B67. The rule string is defined as a binary string (requires at least one 1 and one 0) for ant and a base 4 (or quadranary) string (requires 3 of 4 digits to be represented) for ant3d. Here a special parameter, T and then a number, will pick a specific table. -lifefile filename The lifefile option sets the life and life3d lifeform.

The random mode itself can not be referenced. -/+sequential Turn on non-random random option. **WARNING** xlock can appear to hang if it is competing with a high- priority process for the CPU. For example, if xlock is started after a process with 'nice -20' (high priority), xlock will take considerable amount of time to respond. 2 SHADOW_PASSWORDS 2 If the machine is using a shadow password system, then xlock may not be set up to get the real password and so must be given one of its own. This can be either on the command line, via the -cpasswd option, or in the file $HOME/.xlockrc, with the first taking precedence. In both cases an encrypted password is expected (see makekey(8)). 2 If neither is given, then xlock will prompt for a password and will use that, also storing an encrypted version of it in $HOME/.xlockrc for future use. 2 XLOCK_AND SSH-AGENT 2 If you use ssh-agent(1) to avoid entering a passphrase every time you use one of your ssh(1) private keys, it's good security practice to have ssh-agent forget the keys before you leave your terminal unattended. That way, an attacker who takes over your terminal won't be able to use your private ssh keys to log in to other systems. Once you return to your terminal, you can enter the passphrase and re-add the keys to ssh-agent. There are a couple of ways in which xlock can help to automate this process. Firstly, the startCmd option allows xlock to be configured to run 'ssh- add -D' every time you lock the screen, so that your keys are automatically deleted from ssh-agent. If the passphrase on your ssh keys is the same as your password, then xlock can also be made to re-add the keys to ssh-agent when you unlock the screen, via the pipepassCmd option. This requires a bit of scripting, as the command must read your password from standard input and then automate the interac- tion with ssh-add to re-add the keys. There is an example of such a script in the xlock distribution - see etc/xlockssh* 2 BUGS "kill -KILL xlock " causes the server that was locked to be unusable, since all hosts (including localhost) were removed from the access control list to lock out new X clients, and since xlock could not catch SIGKILL, it terminated before restoring the access control list. This will leave the X server in a state where "you can no longer connect to that server, and this operation cannot be reversed unless you reset the server." -From the X11R4 Xlib Documen- tation, Chapter 7. 2 NCD terminals do not allow xlock to remove all the hosts from the access control list. Therefore you will need to use the "-remote" and "-allowaccess" switches. If you hap- pen to run without "-allowaccess" on an NCD terminal, xlock will not work and you will need to reboot the terminal, or simply go into the SETUP menus, under 'Network Parameters', and turn off TCP/IP access control. 2 SEE_ALSO 2 X(1), Xlib Documentation. 2 AUTHOR 2 Maintained by: David Albert Bagley, <bagleyd@tux.org> 2 The latest version is currently at: ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/tux/bagleyd/xlockmore ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/applications 2 Original Author: Patrick J.
