We found on Server 2008 R2 where you can set group policy for lockout and this way users don't lose any data. &nbsp;Thanks.

We already have screensaver locks after xx amount of idle time, but also would like an auto logoff after 30 minutes of idle time, preferably one global policy on our Windows 2008 R2 server that would apply to everyone. &nbsp;Also, may be two different settings, but would like this auto logoff to happen both locally and when people log in remotely (especially the latter). &nbsp;Looked online but didn't find anything very helpful.
