For all those deactivating SAK, please give this a quick read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_attention_key
Thanks for that
It really is up to you as to whether or not login spoofing is a concern on your machine, but I work with multi-user systems in a large environment where login spoofing is a definite concern. Therefore, NOT having an SAK option is a blocker that would actually force the use of Windows clients.
OK, understood. So at my little private network that is no thread.
I think the biggest annoyance was "the same keys" (at least to me). Maybe a more UNIX like combination will ease the pain?
What would you suggest? We should be careful of changing this just so that it is different from Windows though, as it not only introduces confusion in users who need to use both systems, but also smacks of "Not Invented Here" syndrome. :-)
And a text modification, which hints to the "information, why" and the "way to deactivate, if save"..
This is a good idea. There seems to be a lot of user confusion over the role of the SAK in system security, and this should be addressed somewhere in the control center or other configuration dialog(s).
