No, what Roger meant was to get the Logoff Screen Saver file from Win2000
Resource Kit (winexit.scr). You can also able to download this file from the
internet if you do not have 2k000RK (just search for winexit.scr in google)

Below is a link to show how to configure this screen saver properly as it
might not work with legacy cliients. (this screen saver also works in XP and
w2k3)

If you intend to use GPO to set this screen saver, just create a new GPO and
go to User configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel >Display.
Enable to following 3 policies :
   Screen Saver - Enable
   Screen Saver executable name - wnexit.scr
   Screen Saver timeout - say, 5 minutes

Remember to link this GPO to an OU that ONLY contains that single PC.

HTH.
