How do you logout from a session?

Hello all -

I'm finishing up a script that I wrote.

This is what I did:

I added some lines to the .bash_profile that will call my startup script:

cd $HOME/startup
./startup.scr

This startup script will create some directories, move some files, and then startup an application:

cd $HOME/applications
./move_some_files
./start_application

This is where I need some help:

Under Redhat Linux how do I kill the session and log the user out and display the login screen from my script?

Thanks!
