Hello

I need to know how to apply the screensaver settings to all users on a Windows 2000 Pro pc.

Thanks
D
 
Diny,

Is this one PC that multiple users log into or are you asking how to apply a certain screen saver to all PC's in your network?

Hello Patty

This pc is part of a W2K domain, multiple users log to the computer and it is supposed to be configure so the screensaver will load after 10 mins. This is to all users.

I need to know how to apply it to every user.

Thanks, D
 
Diny,

So, you want the screen saver to load after 10 minutes but certain users are changing that setting? If this is the case you can force this issue in a GPO.


The setting is in Group Policy|User Configuration|Administrative Templates|Control Panel|Display Screen Saver Time Out.

What you set here will not be overridden by the settings on the display applet.

Hope this helps,
