yes i have also experienced this phenomena...   Actually i think it's
doing more than just logging out your session.  Check out your syslog to
see if it "reinitialized" Ultrix.  I assume that this is some sort of 
warm boot sequence, since it kills all logins.  I too am running 
Ultrix 2.3 on a Microvax II with a monochrome display

i also had the identical problem with xdm.  btw.   before it starts the
second X, it kills all current logins....   btw.   this is not a good
thing when 7 people get nuked without any notice..   my bad...  
can anyone please help??!  i think it might be something with
XtFree or something like that...  that's where xterm goes away...
