rup(1N)                                                   rup(1N)



NAME
     rup - displays the status of machines on the  local  network
     (RPC version)

SYNOPSIS
     rup [-h] [-l] [-t] [host]...

ARGUMENTS
     -h   Sorts the display alphabetically by host name.

     -l   Sorts the display by load average.

     -t   Sorts the display by up time.

     host Specifies the host whose status is to be displayed.

DESCRIPTION
     rup gives a status similar to uptime for remote machines; it
     broadcasts on the local network, and displays the responses
     it receives.

     Normally, the listing is in the order that responses are
     received, but this order can be changed by specifying one of
     the options.

     When host arguments are given, rather than broadcasting, rup
     will only query the list of specified hosts.

     A remote host will only respond if it is running the rstatd
     daemon, which is normally started up from inetd(1M).

LIMITATIONS
     Broadcasting does not work through gateways.

FILES
     /usr/bin/rup
          Executable file
     /etc/servers
          File containing list of hosts
