We're pretty big on locking workstations when they're unattended here. I want this Mac I'm working on remotely to be logged in as the end user, but I can't figure how to lock it through Remote. Am I missing something, or is there a trick to it? Can I pass a Control+Shift+Eject through Remote?

If you use Apple Remote Desktop you can lock the screen while you work. As far as using casper remote I think there's an option to connect using a virtual desktop. I'm not sure how it would look to anyone walking by on the other end, but I do know that if you do it while someone else is logged in they can't see what you're doing.
