Screen saver is a user policy? &nbsp;Do you have it applying to computers or users.<br />
<br />
If you want a user policy to apply to computers you have to use loopback processing. <a href="http://sdmsoftware.com/blog/2009/01/06/please-explain-loopback-processing/" rel="ugc">http://sdmsoftware.com/blog/2009/01/06/please-explain-loopback-processing/</a><br />

I'd test first before I did that, or apply it to users and test that.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
