Hi,
Uses: Windows XP +SP2, Domain Memeber;

We have a computer which is kept as a Public Viewer. Recently we added this
to Active Directory. However now we are facing a trouble where the windows XP
automatically logs off and locks it self after several minutes.

This and several computers are in a Certain Organizational Unit (OU) and we
would like to have any Group Policy written to avoid this problem for that
only if there were no solutions to apply to the local computer itself.

If there is solution we could pass it on for the Group IT Department, which
the main Active Directory is installed.

Any solution we would be appreciated.

Regards,

Your IT Dept. should create a special OU for the Public Viewer machine and
assign Group Policies to that OU accordingly. One of the main advantages to
AD is being able to do this sort of thing centrally.
