8884 2001-02-18 02:13:00 We run Win9x terminals on a Novell (4.1) network.
We use scripting to establish a desktop for each individual according to what their network rights are and the programs they require.

I can get a screen saver to kick in after a specified time and can do the same sort of thing for the power settings for the minitor and hard drives. Is there anyway of doing the same sort of thing for logging off - ie if there has been no mouse or keyboard activity for a specified time the PC automatically returns to the login screen where a login ID and password are required. I know I can password a screen saver but this is slightly different . It covers the situation where there are multiple users of the same machine who don't want to give others their screen saver password.

Thanks in anticipation

I'll be damned if I can find it, but there is somewhere out there a screensaver from microsoft that will log the user off. You can then deploy it and use a policy to enforce it.
