Enforcing screen lock policies for RHEL 7 / KDE 4?

[David Edmundson]

What version of Plasma?

If it's Plasma 5 you want to look in ~/.config for the format not ~/.kde.

There is.

Order of propogation for Plasma 5 is:

~/.config/myAppConfigrc (i.e dolphinrc)
~/.config/kdeglobals
/etc/xdg/kdeglobals
~/.config/system.kdeglobals
/etc/xdg/system.kdeglobals
/etc/kde5rc

With the topmost being the value used unless set immutable by one lower.
