When I hit Win+L on either of my machines I'd ideally like to be able to lock both client and server What happens though is no matter which screen I hit the key combination... it locks the server.

I'm guessing the OS is trapping the key sequence before it can get passed to the app to manage, so I'm happy to use a different key sequence as long as the result will be the same

Not the solution you're looking for, but a shortcut with the following target will give you a clickable link to lock whatever system it's run on: %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation I keep a copy in the Quick Launch Bar of any machines I expect to access remotely. – Iszi Rory or Isznti Apr 5 '11 at 19:47
@lszi: rundll32 should not be used for that. – grawity Apr 6 '11 at 12:00

You want to do this in the options section.

You can define certain keypresses in there and how they get propogated out to the individual clients.

The manual tells you how to do it Look for the keystroke commands.

thanks Matt. it's pretty unclear and painful to do and, as I was having a bunch of other issues with it, i gave up and switched to InputDirector... PC only (and probably less capable) but easier out of the box – Offbeatmammal Apr 6 '11 at 15:53
