I have set up a policy on an user group OU that kicks off
a screensaver after 30 minutes. The policy works for both
the Win2k machines and the XP machines, but strangely, on
the XP machines the timeout option on the client side is
greyed out so they can't change it, but for the Win2k
users it's not. I'd like it greyed out for all users.

Any ideas?
 
This is most likely an OS Issue. Windows 2000 and XP Group Policy support is
differnet. The feature support in XP is much better than 2000, I'd call this
one of the enhancements.

You may also need to hide the screensaver page to block W2K users from accessing the
setting. ---Steve
