I'm thinking of installing a password screensaver on Win2k and XP clients
but I can see a problem when I have to get access to the clients and can't
get by the screensaver becourse of the password.

Is there a way around this. Mayby if a certen password works on all the
clients. This world solve the problem.

Anyone?

Typically when a workstation is locked by a password protected screensaver,
the computer can be unlocked by the user that was logged on or an
administrator. If an administrator unlocks the computer, the currently
logged on user is immediately logged off and any unsaved work is lost.

Yes, and that is my problem. It would be smart if users has there own
passwords and the administrator could use a specifik password to get by the
screensaver without the user loosing data.¨
Maybe a 3. part software can do this!!
