NAME

rusers − who’s logged in on remote machines

SYNOPSIS

rusers [ −ahilu ] host ...

AVAILABILITY

SUNWesu

DESCRIPTION

The rusers command produces output similar to who(1), but for remote machines.  The listing is in the order that responses are received, but this order can be changed by specifying one of the options listed below. 

The default is to print out the names of the users logged in.  When the −l flag is given, additional information is printed for each user:

userid    hostname:terminal    login date    login time    idle time    login host

If hostname and login host are the same value, the login host field is not displayed.  Likewise, if hostname is not idle, the idle time is not displayed. 

A remote host will only respond if it is running the rusersd daemon, which may be started up from inetd(1M) or listen(1M). 

OPTIONS

−a Give a report for a machine even if no users are logged on. 

−h Sort alphabetically by host name. 

−i Sort by idle time. 

−l Give a longer listing in the style of who(1). 

−u Sort by number of users.
