The log entries doesn't really indicate why the unlock is not successful,
strange.
To configure TL to disconnect inactive sessions, you can use the
IdleTimeout option for Xvnc:
IdleTimeout - The number of seconds after which an idle VNC connection
will be dropped (zero means no timeout) (default=0)
So for example, you can add -IdleTimeout=120 to the xserver_args parameter
in vsmagent.hconf. Then, restart the vsmagent service and login again.
Regards,
Peter
