Log out from what? For the console, it would be "logout". For the GUI, it depends on what GUI you are using (GNOME/KDE/CDE/...)

If you logged into a console, exit will logout of the console. The questions not answered are relevant -- log out from what?

I don't know of a command to log out another user. Killing processes belonging to them should do it.
