rwho(1) USER COMMANDS rwho(1)
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.
