Doesn't work for me...
Authored by: ChaChi on Jun 04, '07 09:33:31AM

All this does for me is just toggle the setting in System Preferences. It doesn't actually change whether or not my password is required. Can someone else test this and confirm it for me?

I get the same thing. The box gets checked and unchecked in the Security preference pane, but it doesn't seem to actually take effect until I log out and back in.

Thank you for confirming this Werd! I wish I knew what "magic" System Preferences performs when you physically click the button in Security. I've been trying to hunt down that answer for quite some time now!
