SUMMARY: Can't log out of CDE!

        The original question had to deal with being unable to exit a
CDE session on console, getting a TT_ERR_NO_MATCH error.

        Two replies. One suggested that this was a known bug in 4.0B,
and that we should check out the patch kits, or look into 4.0D or
better.

        The second suggested that the error was a Tool Talk error, and
we should check to ensure TT's processes (rpc.ttdbserverd, dtspc and
rpc.cmsd) were running out of inetd. It also noted the security risks
involved in running TT.

        For the specific situation, we're still not sure where the
problem lies. TT had been disabled on that machine for months, and the
error first happened yesterday (after many successful logins and
logouts of CDE). As for the known bug, the machine will be upgraded
this summer, so until then we've decided to just disable CDE on
console.

        Thanks!
