Q. Do we greet one another with Gut Yom Tov on Yom Kipur?
A. See question 1459 above if Yom Kipur is considered a Yom Tov or no. Chassam Sofer would greet his talmidim after Maariv on Kol Nidrei night with; Gut Yom Tov (Darkei Chaim Vesholom (753), see also Nitei Gavriel 32: 1)
Horav Shlomo Millers Shlita opinion is that it is better to say a Gut yohr or Gmar chasima tova.
Horav Aharon Miller Shlita pointed out to Mishna Berura (623: 12) and Shaarei Tzion (ibid.:16) mentions that one should greet another with Gut Yom Tov at the end of Yom Kipur day, when they would make a customary seuda.
