About:
xlockmore is an enhanced version of xlock. It incorporates several new commandline options, which allow you to run it in a window, in the root window, in a different size/location, change the size of the iconified window, to install a new colormap and delay locking for use with xautolock.

[»] non suid/sgid
by karellen - Aug 17th 2000 04:04:24

This program should *not* be installed suid/sgid root or any other user with special privileges. It's known to have repeatedly compromised security and it's one of the first first binaries that I chmod 755 after installing a new Linux system. By not making it suid/sgid you force the program to generate ~/.xlockrc where the screensaver password is stored. I believe this is secure enough, as the file is chmod 600 and enables you to set a different password [not the system password] on the screensaver.
