I am sure there is a simple answer to this question, but I can't figure it out!

Running a network of XP Pro machines that log into a domain controller with Server 2003.

I want the XP Machines to log out, or at least need to enter a password to log back in, after they have been idle for around ten min.

Is there some simple setting that I should change in the group policy to make this happen?

Thanks!

Hi CVC, just off the top of my head, the easiest thing to do would be to activate the screen saver and check the require password on resume.... I think that's about the closest you're gonna get without doing some real digging into all those gpo security settings........

Thats a good idea! I knew there was something very simple that I was overlooking.
