policy to force screen lockout on a PC ?

[JAQK]

How can we force a certain computer to lock up (password protect) after x
minutes, regardless of who's logged on ?

(Win2K3/Win2K domain)

Thanks.

Are you talking NO activity screensaver lockdown? (see screensaver
options) OR LOCKUP regardless of ACTIVTY? (PSSHUTDOWN -T combined with
Taskmanager and a logon timer)

No activity -- for security reasons, obviously.

There are *user* settings for screen saver lockdown in GP, but no *computer*
settings.

How can we apply this to the computer itself ? We don't want the domain
users to be affected when logging on elsewhere.

Thank you.

Humm, suppose you could use taskmanager to do it with an idle setting.
