Auto lock workstation console

[Guest]

I have a couple of our Win2k application servers set to auto-login, but I
would like to have them locked immediately or after several minutes when they
reboot instead of waiting for the screen saver to lock the console. Is that
possible?

What's wrong with using the screen saver? It seems
to be made exactly for this sort of thing.

Just run a batch file at startup (after logging in, I guess the startup menu
would work), with the following command:

rundll32 user32.dll,LockWorkStation

Why have it logon at all?
