Network of W2KSBS and Novell. I am using the "On resume, Password Protect"
on the screen saver tab of "Display Properties". Screen saver invokes and
requires that the user logs in and it authenticates against NDS. This is
good for most cases, but I have to lock down the CFO's PC and since several
members of the IT staff have access to change passwords on Novell and W2KSBS
servers, they can change the Novell or W2KSBS password and then login as that
user with the password that they just created. I have search the internet
and the Win XP newsgroups for a solution and there doesn't appear to be one.
Everytime you turn around Microsoft say they are working on the security of
its products, yet it doesn't allow for a lockdown of a PC via a screen saver
password that doesn't you a network server password that could be changed by
an IT staff with high enough rigths. NOTE: PC is locked by a BIOS bootup and
restart passwords.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
