Enclosed are two bug reports sent about people not being able to logout.
We could always use end_session again in the alias... I would guess that
people have been copying the system xsession and editing it... We
certainly should not be leaving people logged in...

What were you trying to do?
Log out.
What's wrong:
I didn't log out.
What should have happened:
The machine logged me out.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Huh? alias logout
kill -HUP $XSESSION && exit
Huh? echo $XSESSION
I do not touch $XSESSION during my login sequence.
If the default .xsession file has changed, that would be something useful to
know, as I have my own .xsession file.

What were you trying to do?
log out of the session with the standard alias "logout"
What's wrong:
The logout didn't kill the seesion. Instead, it only killed the xterm. I kept t
rying to logout from different windows until I ran out of windows. THen, I had t
o reboot the machine...
What should have happened:
It shoulda logged me out.
