I know that if a LoginHook exits with a 0, the login proceeds
normally.  If it exits with a 1, then the login kicks back out to
the prompt.
I want to do the same sort of thing with LogoutHook.  If I exit the
LogoutHook program with a 1, I want it to dump the user back into
the workspace, not letting them log out.  I tried it, and it doesn't
work.  Anyone have any idea how I might do this? (something
undocumented?)
BTW, in case you're wondering why I don't want to let the user log
out, it's because I want to force them to go back and reduce their
disk usage before they log out.
