Hi

Thank you
So as dm-tool lock seems actually to be working on my my Debian and I
did not anything fancier else than install lightdm via apt-get can you
recommend other help here. IT is a security concern as I think

kind regards
Josef

So that's expected. If you want the screen to lock using dm-tool,
install a
screen locker like light-locker, recommended by lightdm.
