By default, CentOS v5 requires a user's password when the system wakes up from the screensaver. This can be disabled by each user, but how can I disable this system-wide? Many of my users forget to do this, which results in workstations being locked up.

Ctrl-Alt-Bksp will fix that right up. I'm not a big fan of users leaving workstations unsecured when they walk away.

Wouldn't that kill any programs, or whatever, the user has running?
