Just now in w20-575 I found a machine screensaved by you, with a float-icon
which read somethink similar to:
"This workstation is temporarily
out of service. It will be repaired
shortly."

I rebooted it.

You should change your screensaver configuration if you expect people who
patrol the clusters who have a clue about screensavers to not reboot you
on sight. Additionally, you should not disable the time-elapsed display as
you did, so that people don't automatically assume that you have been logged
in for several hours (with the log-me-out popup disabled) and reboot you.

Thank you.
