How to lock screen

Hi list

I'm trying to find a way to "lock screen" when logged on as root on the
console of a RHEL4 box
I know that everyone will say "don't do this", but nevertheless, that is
what I really want to do...
In a few words: this is a box on which security is not an issue, I just
want to prevent curious fingers to mess around with my desktop when I'm
away (you know, we name them something like 'kids')

I went through the xscreensaver doc, but it didn't help, 'xhost +' didn't
either

Any clue is welcome
