With a totally W2k you can set a policy for a locked screen saver to come on
at a set idle time.

Subject: User Log off
Does anyone know of group policies, software, configurations that will
automatically log a user off after a specific amount of time?
Basically, people staying logged in is bad for a whole slew of privacy and
security reasons (as you all know). My users seem to have trouble
understanding this. I know I can set a Windows 2000 Group Policy for
"logout automatically" and "time to terminate session" or something like
that, but I'm pretty sure that only applies to terminal services clients. I
searched the web for a while and came up with 12Ghosts Shutdown which is a
small app that "overloads" the shutdown of Windows and among other things
has a inactivity timer. However, in testing, having picky programs (like
Outlook 2002) open will effectively not let 12Ghosts log the user out.
Has anyone else solved this issue with some sort of technology, I'm wearing
thin on user eduacation right now...

PS I suppose I should let everyone know that the network is completely
Windows 2000.
