from the man lock (class Boolean) Enable locking: before the screensaver will turn off, it will require you to type the password of the logged-in user (really, the person who ran xscreensaver), or the root password. (Note: this doesn't work if the screensaver is launched by xdm(1) because it can't know the user-id of the logged-in user. See the ``Using XDM(1)'' section, below. maybe this is a bug. but this is perfectly working on solaris where tey also use screesaver in conjunction with gdm ! any idea ?
