Exit or logout
When I want to close my session I can use exit or logout, and a lot of manuals use both of them indistinctly. So, Is there any difference between exit or logout?? Or are both of them exactly the same command??
I forgot to mention that I am using a RedHat Unix.
Thanks for your help.
Kinai.
