Users logged in through which NIC
We have two NIC cards in our IBM RS/6000 F50 running AIX 4.3.3
We are trying to make sure we have moved all users to log in through the new NIC.
10.22.x.y (old)
10.22.x.z (new)
How can I tell which users are still using the old address for logging in so I can update their work station to point to the new address? It is a large warehouse with hundreds of users.
Unfortunately, the actual IP address is used from their 286/386 DOS workstation (glorified terminal) in order to connect to the box (it's in the autoexec.bat), so we have to change each workstation.
I know there are too many issues to list with this setup, and DNS would solve most of it, but that is further down the path.
TIA

whois(1) User Commands whois(1)
NAME
whois - Internet user name directory service
SYNOPSIS
whois [-h host] identifier
DESCRIPTION
whois searches for an Internet directory entry for an identifier which is either a name (such as ``Smith'') or a handle (such as ``SRI-
NIC''). To force a name-only search, precede the name with a period; to force a handle-only search, precede the handle with an exclamation
point.
To search for a group or organization entry, precede the argument with * (an asterisk). The entire membership list of the group will be
displayed with the record.
You may of course use an exclamation point and asterisk, or a period and asterisk together.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Using The whois Command
The command:
example% whois Smith
looks for the name or handle SMITH.
The command:
example% whois !SRI-NIC
looks for the handle SRI-NIC only.
The command:
example% whois .Smith, John
looks for the name JOHN SMITH only.
Adding ... to the name or handle argument will match anything from that point; that is, ZU ... will match ZUL, ZUM, and so on.
