There are three options included with SunOS 4.1 and above:
  screenblank  (read the manpage)
  Suntools Menu, select screenlock
  Openwindows Menu, select lock screen.

I would also be able to run a moving image like the screen locks, but have
it operate like the screenblank after several minutes of inactivity on a
workstation that doesn't have anyone logged on and therefore has no window
system running.
