NAME
rwho
—
who is logged in on local
machines
SYNOPSIS
rwho |
[-aHq ] |
DESCRIPTION
Therwho
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 the users last known to be logged into that
machine.
If a user hasn't typed to the system for a minute or more, then
rwho
reports this idle time.
-a
- Include all users. By default, if a user hasn't typed to the system for an hour or more, then the user will be omitted from the output.
-H
- Write column headings above the regular output.
-q
- “Quick mode”: List only the names and the number of users currently logged on. When this option is used, all other options are ignored.
FILES
- /var/rwho/whod.*
- information about other machines

HISTORY
The rwho
command appeared in
4.3BSD.
BUGS
This is unwieldy when the number of machines on the local net is large.
