	This isn't exactly a NetBSD or amiga question, but anyway:

	What if a user has his own .fvwmrc and .xinitrc?  All of my users
(well, the ones that actually use console) do this.
	The only way to _force_ everyone to run xconsole is to force them
to use X - by running xdm, with xconsole running as soon as the system 
starts the xserver.
	Other than that, don't worry about it - if someone wants to deviate
from your "recommended" setting in the system files, let them pay for any
bad choices.  If this is actually a real problem (ie bugs in certain 
xservers), just configure syslogd to not log to console (see syslog.conf).
If you want to see the messages yourself, you can just have xterm or rxvt
execute a "tail -f" of whatever file(s) you want to see.
