Lock screen on Fedora 7 as on Windows XP

[Polly_31]

Hi all,

Is it possible to lock the screen so that I have to login again, eg. if I go for a coffee?
In windows XP it works with Ctrl + Alt + del or Windows Key + L

In fedora7 I sah Ctrl + Alt + L but it makes the screen only black. When I move the mosue the whole PC is useable, rahter than asking for a PW agaiin?

Is there a way to do that?

Thanks

Select System->Preferences->Look and Feel->Screensaver.

Check "Activate screensaver when computer is idle" and "Lock screen when screensaver is active".

You can also adjust time delays and power management (screen power off) through that GUI.
