Logging out with 4Sight

[Tom Haapanen]

We just recently upgraded to version 3.1C on our Iris 4D, with 4Sight
instead of Mex.  Now, when you sign on the console, we get menus (at top
left) and a window at bottom left.  It's easy to create lots of windows
by cloning or otherwise.

However, it is not sufficient to log out from all the windows: it'll then
still be possible to open another window (using the Tools menu).  Thus, you
must use the 4Sight "Log out" menu item to log out completely, and this is
what we have been telling our users.

However, what happens is they'll just log out from the menu, instead of
closing each one individually.  The problem with this is that 4Sight does
not appear to update /etc/utmp to indicate they have logged off.  Thus, as
of right now, I'm the only one on the system, but who tells me:

	tom        ttyd1        May 17 12:00
	zeng       ttyq2        May 17 01:43
	zeng       ttyq3        May 17 02:01
	zeng       ttyq4        May 17 02:06

Has this been fixed in a new version?  And hasn't there been another version
since 3.1C (which we received 2 weeks ago)?
