The GNOME desktop does not support system-wide login scripts or logout scripts. The session manager only allows users to configure user sessions. Users can configure non-session-managed startup applications with the Sessions preference tool.

	Tip
You can work around the lack of support for system-wide login scripts. To create a system-wide login script, create the script in the `/usr/dt/config/Xsession.d` directory. Name the script as follows: `number_greater_than_1000.name` For example, name the script `1050.login`. For more information on the `/usr/dt/config/Xsession.d` file, see The XSession File in the dtlogin(1) man page.
