I am on a system at work where all our passwords are kerberized, and the
password field in my account is "*" Thus, when locking screen, it asks
for a key.
Now, interestingly enough, it would be rather trivial for a locked screen
to use its internal locking tool, and just use the password I've set in my
.screenrc, but it's "hard" to pass a crypted password to the non-builtin.
It can prompt twice for a non-crypted password, but that really defeats
idle-locking.
According to the manpage, screen calls /bin/lock or whatnot -- there's no
way through .screenrc to change this (why?)...and yet the output of a
locked screen looks significantly different from when I use lock alone.
Any ideas on this one?
