Thanks for all of your ideas. I am going to try locking down the
preference pane file and modifing the plist file. The other thing
I have been experimenting with is creating a cron job that performs
a shell script that does a default write to the
"com.apple.screensaver..... " file every few minutes. But I have
been getting unexpected results.
I still think there should be an easy apple script answer : )
Try the following with whatever modifications you need for the file
path on your machine and make sure password security is enabled in
System Prefs:
tell application "Finder"
activate
try
open alias
"MacHD:System:Library:Frameworks:ScreenSaver.framework:Versions:A:Resour
ces:ScreenSaverEngine.app:"
on error errM
display dialog errM
end try
end tell
