NAME

     rusers -- who is logged in to machines on local network

SYNOPSIS

     rusers [-al] [host ...]

DESCRIPTION

     The rusers command produces output similar to who(1), but for the list of hosts or all machines on the local network.  For each host respond-
     ing to the rusers query, the hostname with the names of the users currently logged on is printed on each line.  The rusers command will wait
     for one minute to catch late responders.

     The following options are available:

     -a      Print all machines responding even if no one is currently logged in.

     -l      Print a long format listing.  This includes the user name, host name, tty that the user is logged in to, the date and time the user
	     logged in, the idle time (in minutes), and the remote host they logged in from (if applicable).

DIAGNOSTICS

     rusers: RPC: Program not registered
	     The rpc.rusersd(8) daemon has not been started on the remote host.

     rusers: RPC: Timed out
	     A communication error occurred.  Either the network is excessively congested, or the rpc.rusersd(8) daemon has terminated on the
	     remote host.

     rusers: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out
	     The remote host is not running the portmapper (see rpcbind(8)), and cannot accommodate any RPC-based services.  The host may be down.
