That is correct. Xstartup and Xreset scripts are run as root. However, you do have access to the username that is logging in (or out) via $USER. > I'd like to run a post-session script as the user.

This way, when Xsession 'exec's the window manager, you still have control of the user's session from the wrapper script. So the wrapper script will wait until Xsession has completed executing and control will be returned after the window manager is terminated. This way, you can then run any set of commands including calling a termination script if you desire. I did something similar to this in order to wrap the user's session entirely in a call to esddsp to get the sound daemon on the workstation to be used for all sound events in the running X session from the server. - -- Jason A.
