Please explain a little more detail for the first option so I can set
it up. The main purpose is to make the screen lock after certain time
of system idle. Mostly for the local administrator login.

Log on as the administrator of the machine. Fire up "gpedit.msc" at the Start->Run command box. In the opening "Group Policy Editor", navigate to
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel\Display\ and edit the policies "Screen saver timeout" and "Password protect the screen saver"

The settings you make here will affect all user accounts on that machine.

cheers,

Florian
