DESCRIPTION

The rusers command broadcasts a query on the local network and displays the
responses it receives.  To query specific hosts, specify their names in the
hostname parameter.

Note:  Remote hosts respond only if they are running the rpc.rusersd daemon.

FLAGS

The rusers command displays the responses to the query in the order it receives
them.  Each machine is listed on a separate line.  Use the following flags to
change the print order:

-a     Responds for all machines even if no users are logged on.

-d num Displays the first num host names.

-h     Sorts responses alphabetically by host name.

-i     Sorts responses by idle time.  Idle time is reported if a user has not
       typed into the system for more than a minute.

-l     Responds with a longer listing, in the style of the who command.

-u     Sorts responses by numbers of users.
