[foxboro] shut down DM from a script




Hi all.

I want to shut down a DM from a shell script.
I tried the following, but it only works when run by  root. I need it to
work with users other than root.

#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/pref -DM0001 dmcmd 'dmcmd dmexit'

Has anybody used the display manager command DMPID to give me the process
id for the DM?.
If I could get that to work, I could kill the pid.
