Steve has a conslock in sources. I have a couple of CPUs in open areas
that I lock using it. Put it as the last action in /cfg/machine/cpurc
to lock on startup.

There is also, somewhere, a screen locker program that (I think) Rob
wrote a few years back; I compiled it and used it successfully last

automatically lock the screen. However, for the life of me I can't
find the code right now, so maybe somebody else can point to it.
i didn't suggest lock for cpu servers since it requires
rio. seems silly to run rio on the console just to lock it.
and unfortunately, i think this method would also interfere
with the serial console. and it wouldn't be immune to
a three-fingered salute, ^P, ^T^Tr, and other hilarity.
since there are no interrupts on the console, it would seem
trivial to me to, ahem, lock down the console with a 10 line program.
you'd be left with defending against ^T^Tr, ^P, etc.
but then again, the power button or network cable is sooo
convienent. heck, just take the machine home. :-P.
