What's the problem with being logged in more than once? I am
frequently logged in via xdm and on one or two consoles, and sometimes
also, at the same time, from one or more remote machines, also using
xdm (XDMCP) and/or ssh or telnet.

Logging out someone else is usually done by killing his login shell or
session manager.
