rwho(1N)                         (TCP/IP)                          rwho(1N)


   NAME
         rwho - who's logged in on local machines

   SYNOPSIS
         rwho [ -a ]

   DESCRIPTION
         The rwho command produces output similar to who(1), but for all
         machines on your network.  If no report has been received from a
         machine for 5 minutes, rwho assumes the machine is down, and does not
         report users last known to be logged into that machine.

         If a user has not typed to the system for a minute or more, rwho
         reports this idle time.  If a user has not typed to the system for an
         hour or more, the user is omitted from the output of rwho unless the
         -a flag is given.

         The -a option reports all users whether or not they have typed to the
         system in the past hour.

   FILES
         /var/spool/rwho/whod.*             information about other machines

   SEE ALSO
         finger(1), ruptime(1), who(1), rwhod(1M).

   NOTES
         Does not work through gateways.

         This is unwieldy when the number of machines on the local net is
         large.

         The rwho service daemon, rwhod(1M), must be enabled for this command
         to return useful results.
