Hi,

I have windows 2000 server and I will lock the machine ("lock
workstation" ), go to lunch and when I come back it is unlocked. I even
watch it unlock itself after 5 minutes or so.

Another person had this issue but with no response:

What can I do to make sure my computer computer stays locked?

Thanks,

David

Sounds like the Group Policy has changed to make it do this.

Mike,

Thank you! Where would I change this? Active Directory (if so where?)?
In the meantime, I set my screen saver to lock the machine after 1
minute.

Thanks,

Phin
