rusers(1tcp)
rusers --
who's logged in on local machines
Synopsis
rusers [-ahilu] [ host . . . ]
Description
The rusers command produces output similar to
who(1),
but for remote machines.
It broadcasts on the local network,
and prints the responses it receives.
Options
rusers takes the following options:
-a-
Give a report for a machine even if no users are logged on.
-h-
Sort alphabetically by host name.
-i-
Sort by idle time.
-l-
Give a longer listing in the style of
who(1).
-u-
Sort by number of users.
Usage
Normally, the listing is in the order that responses are received,
but this order can be
changed by specifying one of the options listed below.
When the host arguments are given,
rather than broadcasting,
rusers will only query the list of specified hosts.
The default is to print out the names
of the users logged in,
with one line per machine.
When the -l flag is given,
additional information is printed for each user,
including idle time, when user logged in, and tty.
A remote host will only respond if it is running the
rusersd(1Mtcp)
daemon, which may be started up from
inetd(1Mtcp)
or
listen(1M).
