This network that I am working with is in a domain, with a policy that enforce a Screen Saver and automatic lock out of the account after 20 minutes. Windows Server 2003 and Vista.
When the Vista workstation locks out, a different user with a different username, cannot log in, because the previous user still has an active session in place. How do I get around this? Ideally, I would like the computer to automatically log off after “x” minutes.
I have tried setting up a script with winexit.scr, inserted into the workstations system32 folder. I created a script that only affects a specific group of users. This script has Screen Saver, Timeout, and Executable Name (winexit.scr) all enabled in Group Policy. With it enabled, this policy is not working.
Any ideas?
Thanks
