When ever I try to logout of a Gnome session, it seems to hang but if I wait about 4-5 minutes it will usually logout, although I have had it hang a couple of times (never logs out).
Had similar problems in FC3 and the culprit seemed to be rhn-applet. Solved it by doing: #rpm -e rhn-applet
Hi Sudev! What exactly is the purpose of 'rhn-applet' ?
rhn-applet is the little check-mark (or exclamation point) beside the date that tells you whether you need updates. It usually works OK, but can hang up.
I use it on all my installs without any issues, but there have been problems with it on all platforms in the past (on RH like OSs). To be honest, I don't usually log out unless I am rebooting after a new kernel install on any of my machines :) ... but I don't have any issues that I can see.

Any ideas as to what might be causing it to hang up? This is a fresh install of Centos 4.1 with nothing special done to it.
Gnome logout take about 4-5 minutes to complete (if it doesn't hang).
