disable DCE root access

I am trying to avoid root login to DCE but it doesn't work .. I have introduced in the /etc/dt/config/Xstartup file

test=`whoami`
if [[ ${test} = root ]]
then exit 1
fi

But when i introduce this every user is rejected.. It seems that every user is root at this point of execution and all of them are rejected....

What can i do

Re: disable DCE root access

You can put the checks in root's .dtprofile.
That certainly won't harm other users...
