SYNOPSISgdm-stopDESCRIPTIONgdm-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).
