Disable Ctrl+Backspce

Hello to all,

I have one sun solaris workstation. Interrupt is Alt+Backspace, but if I press Ctrl+Backspace, I totaly log out and all programs are closed. This is not what I want and wonder if there is some way to disable this feature.

Thanks

To disable ctrl + backspace key combination put those entries in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Code:
Section "ServerFlags"
        Option         "DontZap" "true"
EndSection
