     rwall(1)                                                 rwall(1)



     NAME
          rwall - write to all users over a network running B-NET
          software

     SYNOPSIS
          rwall host1 host2 ...
          rwall -n netgroup1 netgroup2 ...
          rwall -h host -n netgroup

     DESCRIPTION
          rwall reads a message from standard input until end-of-file.
          It then sends this message, preceded by the line Broadcast
          Message ..., to all users logged in on the specified host
          machines.  With the -n flag option, it sends to the
          specified network groups, which are defined in netgroup(4).

          A machine can only receive such a message if it is running
          rwalld(1M), which is normally started up from /etc/inittab.

     FILES
          /usr/etc/rwall
          /etc/servers
