zlocate

ZLOCATE(1)						      General Commands Manual							ZLOCATE(1)

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.
