[comp.sys.apollo] locking DM upon screen timeout

barriost@foobar.UUCP (Tim Barrios) (06/08/90)

we are looking for a method to let users leave their workstations logged in
but get locked (software-wise) up when they happen to leave the office for
a while or someting.  i would imaging something like 'scrto' but i want to
invoke a program when the screen times out.  we have a manual locking
program around here (sometimes called 'gone' or 'lock', i think from an
ADUS tape) but we need something to kick in automatically, not manually.

if anyone knows of anything like this, please send me some mail (at address
below, not the address news gives, it's wrong).

thanks,
