I've seen that from time to time, on FC4 - FC6 (I haven't tried FC7,
yet).  Something doesn't quit when you exit, and it prevents them from
logging back in.  I'd go to a virtual console, login as root, and kill
off the processes one by one that should have been closed when that user
logged out.  That usually solved it.
