set Net:SSH:Expect timeout and set it again.
SSHing into a machine can take a few seconds, but after I'm in, the commands return quickly. I was wondering if the timeout setting can be changed once I'm logged into the machine. Does anyone know if this can be set on the fly? The problem here is, if I have to set timeout = 10, it'll take 10 seconds for each command I send to the machine. That all around sucks. All responses will be greatly appreciated.

Could anyone let me know - how to set the timeout value for ssh session to HMC? My HMC version is -- V7R7.4.0. I'm sure the version doesn't have anything to do with it.

NAME
rwho - show who is logged in on local machines
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
produces output similar to the output of the HP-UX command for all machines on the local network that are running the daemon (see who(1)
and rwhod(1M)). If has not received a report from a machine for 11 minutes, assumes the machine is down and does not report users last
known to be logged into that machine.
output line has fields for the name of the user, the name of the machine, the user's terminal line, the time the user logged in, and the
amount of time the user has been idle. Idle time is shown as:
If a user has not typed to the system for a minute or more, reports this as idle time. If a user has not typed to the system for an hour
or more, the user is omitted from output unless the flag is given.
An example output line from would look similar to:
This output line could be interpreted as is logged into and his terminal line is has been logged on since September 12 at 13:28 (1:28
p.m.). has not typed anything into for 11 minutes.
WARNINGS

for each user on each machine on the local network that is running
