NAME
ruptime —
show host status of local
machines
SYNOPSIS
ruptime |
[-alrtu] [host ...] |
DEPRECATION NOTICE
ruptime is deprecated and will be removed from future
versions of the FreeBSD base system. If
ruptime is still required, it can be installed from
ports or packages (net/bsdrcmds).
DESCRIPTION
The ruptime utility gives a status line
like uptime(1) for each machine on the local network; these are formed
from packets broadcast by each host on the network once every three
minutes.
If no operands are given, ruptime displays
uptime status for all machines; otherwise only those hosts specified on the
command line are displayed. If hosts are specified on the command line, the
sort order is equivalent to the order hosts were specified on the command
line.
Machines for which no status report has been received for 11 minutes are shown as being down, and machines for which no status report has been received for 4 days are not shown in the list at all.
The options are as follows:
-a- Include all users. By default, if a user has not typed to the system for an hour or more, then the user will be omitted from the output.
-l- Sort by load average.
-r- Reverse the sort order.
-t- Sort by uptime.
-u- Sort by number of users.
The default listing is sorted by host name.
