gdm-stop(1m)		     Maintenance Commands		  gdm-stop(1m)

NAME
       gdm-stop - Stop the GDM daemon process

SYNOPSIS
       gdm-stop

DESCRIPTION
       gdm-stop	 stops	the GDM daemon process by sending a TERM signal to the
       GDM daemon. This command immediately terminates all sessions  and  logs
       out users currently logged in with GDM.

       On Solaris, the GDM service is managed by the smf(5) service management
       facility	 under	the  service  identifier   svc:/application/graphical-
       login/gdm.   On	Solaris, it is recommended that you use the svcadm(1m)
       utility to start and  stop  the	GDM  service  instead  of  using  gdm-
       stop(1m).

FILES
       The following files are used by this application:

       /usr/bin/gdm-stop	       Executable  for	Stop  the  GDM	daemon
				       process.
