passworded screen savers with timeouts, do you enforce?

Last month I asked for reasons why we should utilize passworded screen
savers and I want to say thanks to everyone that responded.

Now I need to ask if you enforce the screen saver password  lockout and
if you do how do you do it? Also how did you go about getting it past
the nay sayers that don't want to have anything make them type their
password in more than once a day.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the help.
