I am assuming you want to restart your cde enviroment check out
publib.boluder.ibm.com it explains this. You might want to be sure no
one else is logged in or using any dtlogin processes since it will
blow them out of the water.

Stopping the Common Desktop Environment manually

When you manually stop the Login Manager, all X Servers and desktop
sessions that the Login Manager started are stopped.

1. Open a terminal emulator window, and log in as root.
2. Obtain the process ID of the Login Manager by typing the
following:

cat /var/dt/Xpid

3. Stop the Login Manager by typing:

kill -term process_id

Starting the Common Desktop Environment manually

Use this procedure to start the Common Desktop Environment manually.

1. Log in to your system as root.
2. At the command line, type the following:

/usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon

A Desktop Login screen is displayed. When you log in, a desktop
session starts.

There is also a dtconfig command along with a reset option not all the
pieces to that do a man on dtconfig used for enable / disabling and
reseting..

Hope this helps some
