One thing to be aware of when using the GTQScripting Library 'login as' and
'logout' is that they are broken for the standard "Guest" user, defined
under File Sharing Setup/Users&Groups.  You *must* use a defined user, even
if it's just 'aguest' password 'guest'.  I don't remember right now, but it
might not work with a null password either (i.e. login as "aguest" password
"").
