rwho

rwho(1) 							   User Commands							   rwho(1)

NAME

       rwho - who is logged in on local machines

SYNOPSIS

       rwho [-a]

DESCRIPTION

       The  rwho  command  produces output similar to who(1), but for all machines on your network.  If no report has been received from a machine
       for 5 minutes, rwho assumes the machine is down, and does not report users last known to be logged into that machine.

       If a user has not typed to the system for a minute or more, rwho reports this idle time.  If a user has not typed to the system for an hour
       or more, the user is omitted from the output of rwho unless the -a flag is given.

OPTIONS

       -a	Report all users whether or not they have typed to the system in the past hour.

FILES

       /var/spool/rwho/whod.*	       information about other machines

ATTRIBUTES

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

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
       |Availability		     |SUNWrcmds 		   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

SEE ALSO

       finger(1), ruptime(1), who(1), in.rwhod(1M), attributes(5)

NOTES

       rwho does not work through gateways.

       The directory /var/spool/rwho must exist on the host from which rwho is run.

       This  service  takes up progressively more network bandwith as the number of hosts on the local net increases. For large networks, the cost
       becomes prohibitive.

       The rwho service daemon, in.rwhod(1M), must be enabled for this command to return useful results.
