Setting passwords
The Client UI policy is where you create the password required to unlock the client UI
if it appears on a client computer. When this policy is applied to the client, the password
is activated.
Two types of passwords are available:
An administrator password, which an administrator can configure and is valid as long
as the policy is applied to the client. The client UI remains unlocked until it is closed.
To reopen the client UI, reenter the administrator password. To create and apply an
administrator password, select any site, group, or computer in the directory tree.
A time-based password, which is automatically generated, applies only to a
particular computer, and has an expiration date and time. The client UI remains
unlocked, even if closed, as long as the time-based password is valid. To create and
apply a time-based password, select a single computer in the directory tree.

Note
Policies are enforced on the client only when the client is closed, regardless of whether
the client is locked or unlocked.
