Nah i want it to lock the workstation. A screen saver password is to generic and once one person knew the password everyone would, hence defeating the purpose.

Hey All,

Just wondering if anyone knows of a screen saver or something that will lock a NT Workstation if it isnt used for X minutes. We have a machine behind reception which is used for DB Queries and everyone always leaves it loged in. Ive decided to make it hard for them by having the workstation lock if they dont use it for 5 minutes. That way the next person to use it will have to track down the previous user to unlock it. Im sure the annoyance will fix it REALLY quick!!!

Any ideas how i could achieve this, i dont want a screensaver password i want the workstation locked.

Tanx
