Title: Making Pdaxrom Secure
Post by: jerrybme on February 16, 2005, 09:59:19 pm

Is there a way to lock down the Z so that if it suspended and someone picks it they.d need a password to get it to resume?

My employer requires all PDAs to be password protected and I'm not sure how to do this.

Thanks,

Jerry

I think it should be possible if you compile or get xlock (or whatever it's name) and hack  the screen blanking applet to call it. This is just an idea, I haven't really looked into it.

xscreensaver has a password resume option, but it looks like it is only in the pre-Kathrin feed...   maybe someone could compile it for RC9?

I tried xscreensaver to no avail, and unfortunately I lost the error log during reflash.

Guess I shoul move stuff to my CF instead of leaving it in ~
