As you can tell, I am FreeBSD newbie with alot of questions.  I was 
cruising along fine until I tried to logout a few seconds ago and noticed
again that I can't use Ctrl-D to logout.  Is that a security feature ?

It doesn't bother even a little bit and I only seek to satisfy my curiosity :)

Thanks.
