rwho(TC)
rwho --
who is logged in on local network
Syntax
rwho [ -a ]
Description
rwho lists users logged in on machines on the
local network. The format is similar to that of
who(C).
Without options, only users who have typed in the last hour
are listed. For each user listed, rwho displays
the user name; the host name; and the date and time the
user logged in. If the user has not typed in the last
minute, rwho also displays the user's idle time
in hours and minutes.
rwho understands the following option:
-a-
List all users on active nodes (users idle
for more than an hour are listed).
If information from a host is more than five minutes old,
the host is assumed to be down and its users are not
listed.
Limitations
Each host to be listed must be running the
rwhod(ADMN)
server, which broadcasts a status packet once every 1 to 3
minutes. The local host must also be running this server
to maintain the data files. Since broadcasts do not cross
gateways, hosts on other networks will not be listed.
