Ours are HP and I'm not aware of such a setting. However this type of
setting would not work for us. I need a screen saver that allows a
administrator to override without logging out the current user.

Just curious, but what make/model of thin-clients are you using? Some,
such as the Wyse OS/Blazer devices will all you to lock the thin-client
session using the domain username/password despite the client not being
part of 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?
