Because the clients are thin clients and don't directly authenticate on
the domain.

Why don't you set the screensaver on the client instead of the server
session?

We have a number of users that access a published desktop. Because of
security concerns they have a screen saver kick in after 20 minutes of
no activate and it requires a password. 

 

My problem is people leave and I need to shutdown their desktop session
so I shadow them and find the screen saver on. I don't have their
password so I can't gracefully close down there session. Is there a
screen saver that allows an admin to over ride it without logging off
the session so I can close their apps gracefully? Any suggestions?
