There are settings for this in your screensaver program. Two common ones are gnome-screensaver and Xscreensaver. Gnome-screensaver uses gconf to make these settings. Root user can make gconf settings default and/or mandatory for users.
Xscreensaver uses regular text files for these settings. Each user can have a .xscreensaver file in their $HOME directory. The setting you want, I believe, is this: lockTimeout: 0:15:00 You can create a .xscreensaver file and put it in /etc/skel so all new users will be given it. Note that users will be able to change their own .xscreensaver files unless you change the permissions on them to disallow write access. -Rob On Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 08:08:51AM -0400, Ryan Stepalavich wrote: > Good morning, > > I'm running LTSP 4.2 on RHEL 4 using IceWM.
