logout and auto-login

What is a preferred method to log the user out of the system
programmatically? I tried kill(-1, x). It did indeed log the user out.
However, this rendered the system to an unusable state, as now the login
just hangs with the progress bar spinning.

Also what exactly happens behind the scene when a user modifieds the
"Automatically Login As" checkbox in the login preference? Is it set
in the NI database, the user preference or some system preference?

thanks. Jake
