NAME
zlocate - find a user using Zephyr SYNOPSIS
zlocate [ -a | -d ] [ -1 ] [ -p ] user ... DESCRIPTION
Zlocate uses the Zephyr(1) Notification Service to find where a user is currently logged in. If the user is not logged in, or has set his location information such that you do not have access to see it, zlocate prints "Hidden or not logged-in". Otherwise, each machine that the user is currently logged into is printed, along with the time of login and location. The location is usually the X window system dis- play name of the user's display, but may be the terminal name if he is not using X or for some other reason is only using the terminal interface to zwgc(1). By default, all zlocate requests are authenticated using Kerberos. If you do not have Kerberos tickets, or for some other reason do not want to authenticate, the -d option will turn off authentication. The -a option is the default, authentication on. When locating multiple users, zlocate will display the user name on a line by itself, followed by the locations for that user. To display the user name on the same line as the output, use the -1 option (the numeral one). To look up multiple users in parallel asynchronously, use the -p option. DIAGNOSTICS
zlocate exits with status zero (0) if at least one user was found, and one (1) if no users were found. SEE ALSO

NAME
zleave - notify you via Zephyr when you have to leave SYNOPSIS
zleave [ [+]hhmm [ -m Reminder Message ] ] zleave can[cel] DESCRIPTION
Zleave waits until the specified time, then reminds you that you have to leave, using the Zephyr(1) Notification Service. You are reminded 5 minutes and 1 minute before the actual time, at the time, and every minute thereafter. When you log off, zleave exits just before it would have sent the next message. The time of day is in the form hhmm where hh is a time in hours (on a 12 or 24 hour clock). All times are converted to a 12 hour clock, and assumed to be in the next 12 hours. If the time is preceded by `+', the alarm will go off in hours and minutes from the current time. If no argument is given, zleave prompts with "When do you have to leave?". A reply of newline causes zleave to exit, otherwise the reply is assumed to be a time. This form is suitable for inclusion in a .login or .profile. The cancel option cancels the currently running zleave. If another zleave is running, it is automatically killed when a new time to leave is set. The process id is stored in the file /tmp/zleave.uid, where uid is the user's UNIX uid. If the -m argument is specified, the next argument is appended to the standard message (a sentence describing how much time remains until the appointed hour) sent at appropriate times. If you want to append a multiple-word message, you normally must quote it with double quotes (") (This is necessary for users of csh(1) and sh(1).) Zleave automatically subscribes you to Zephyr class "MESSAGE", instance "LEAVE". You do not have to add anything to your default subscrip- tions file (see zctl(1)). The reminder message is displayed by the WindowGram client (usually zwgc(1)). If Zephyr is unavailable, zleave acts essentially like leave(1). Zleave ignores SIGINT, SIGQUIT, and SIGTERM. To get rid of it you should either log off or use the cancel option. FILES
