Hi All,

And one more query, I enabled ScreenSaver with password, screen saver was working, but its not asking password, when I disturb the PC.

Hi
Thanks a lot. xlock working fine.
But I've a doubt, why that lock screen button is not working. I'm using Redhat Enterprise Linux 3.0, "Lock Screen" is available in main menu. When I click "Lock Screen", nothing is poped up.
Bye... Jebaraj
