rwall

rwall(1M)						  System Administration Commands						 rwall(1M)

NAME

       rwall - write to all users over a network

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/rwall hostname...

       /usr/sbin/rwall -n netgroup...

       /usr/sbin/rwall -h hostname -n netgroup

DESCRIPTION

       rwall reads a message from standard input until EOF. It then sends this message, preceded by the line:

	   Broadcast Message ...

       to all users logged in on the specified host machines. With the -n option, it sends to the specified network groups.

OPTIONS

       -n netgroup    Send the broadcast message to the specified network groups.

       -h hostname    Specify the hostname, the name of the host machine.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

SEE ALSO

       inetd(1M), listen(1M), pmadm(1M), sacadm(1M), wall(1M), attributes(5)

NOTES

       The  timeout is fairly short to allow transmission to a large group of machines (some of which may be down) in a reasonable amount of time.
       Thus the message may not get through to a heavily loaded machine.
