Can I setup a automatic login request after X minutes of
non use. I want to be able to walk away without the fear
that the kid will use my administrator profile. I want the
kid to login under modified profile.
 
Does the child know the admin password? If so; change it? Maybe I'm missing
the gist of what you're asking, and if so, I apologize Pedro.
Is it not possible for you to setup his own user account that has only
'regular user' rights?

If you're worried about you walking away from the machine while it's running
and you're logged in as Admin; lock the workstation? Again, if the child
knows the admins password - change it.

If I've missed the point, please help me understand what you need.

Please excuse me for not explaining myself correctly.

The scenario is as follows,

I am logged-in as Pedro, with a password and
administrative rights. The need arises for me to walk away
and leave the computer for a while. Since I am logged-in,
any one can use the computer. The question is, can I have
the computer automatically request a re-login after 5
minutes of non-use? This way the children will need to log-
in allowing them to use the computer but with a non-
administrator / restricted profile.

I considered a screen saver password but that would make
the computer totally unusable to any one else.

I also know that I can always log-out every time I walk
away.

Thanks, Pedro
