NAME¶
rwho —
who is logged in on local machines
DESCRIPTION¶
The rwho command produces output similar to
who, 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 users hasn't typed to the system for a minute or more, then
rwho reports this idle time. If a user hasn't typed
to the system for an hour or more, then the user will be omitted from the
output of rwho unless the -a
flag is given.
FILES¶
- /var/spool/rwho/whod.*
- information about other machines
HISTORY¶
The rwho command appeared in
4.3BSD.
BUGS¶
This is unwieldy when the number of machines on the local net is large.
