RWHO(1) General Commands Manual RWHO(1)

rwho — who is logged in on local machines

rwho [-a]

rwho is deprecated and will be removed from future versions of the FreeBSD base system. If rwho is still required, it can be installed from ports or packages (net/bsdrcmds).

The rwho command produces output similar to who(1), but for all machines on the local network. If no report has been received from a machine for 11 minutes then 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, then rwho reports this idle time.

The following option is available:

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.

/var/rwho/whod.*

ruptime(1), who(1), rwhod(8)

The rwho command appeared in 4.3BSD.

This is unwieldy when the number of machines on the local net is large.
