> Hello sunners,

> I am having a problem with some of my users CDE. It will logout to the dtlogin

> screen lock. There is no shutdown involved either... It is almost

> SunOS mco 5.6 Generic_105181-05 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1
> SunOS kul 5.6 Generic_105181-05 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10

> CDE Version: 1.2
> OS Version: 5.6
