rwho
—
who is logged in on local machines
The rwho
command produces output similar to
who(1), but
for all machines on the local network. If no report has been received from a
machine for 11 minutes then 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, then
rwho
reports this idle time.
The following option is available:
-a
- Include all users. By default, if a user has not typed to the system for
an hour or more, then the user will be omitted from the output.
- /var/rwho/whod.*
- information about other machines
The rwho
command appeared in
4.3BSD.
This is unwieldy when the number of machines on the local net is large.
