Run lockscreen -e. It will allow you to a) enter the passwd or b) click on a box forcing a logout of the user. --- Cris

However, clicking on the box to force the logout of the current user does not always work. It occasionally leaves the old user's processes and windows accessable to the new user, who has gained access WITHOUT USING A PASSWORD. The current line from Sun is "don't use 'lockscreen -e', we cannot guarentee its actions, and cannot be liable for its failure".
