       The  command  lists  the  login	name, terminal name, and login time for users on all machines on the local network.  If no report has been
       received from a machine for 5 minutes, assumes that the machine is down, and does not report users last known  to  be  logged  in  to  that
       machine.  If a user has not typed to the system for a minute or more, 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

       If given a list of user names, the command reports on the status of only those names.

Options
       -a   Lists  all	users.	 Normally,  omits  users who have not typed to the system for an hour or more.	If the -a flag is specified, these
	    users are also listed.

       -h   Sorts users by host name.  Normally, prints its output sorted by user name.  If the -h flag is specified, the results  are	sorted	by
	    host name.

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

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. SunOS 5.11 6 Nov 2000 rwho(1)
