RWHO(1)                 NetBSD General Commands Manual                 RWHO(1)


NAME

     rwho -- who is logged in on local machines


SYNOPSIS

     rwho [-aHq]


DESCRIPTION

     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 the
     users last known to be logged into that machine.

     If a user hasn't typed to the system for a minute or more, then rwho
     reports this idle time.

     -a          Include all users.  By default, if a user hasn't typed to the
                 system for an hour or more, then the user will be omitted
                 from the output.

     -H          Write column headings above the regular output.

     -q          ``Quick mode'': List only the names and the number of users
                 currently logged on.  When this option is used, all other
                 options are ignored.

BUGS

     This is unwieldy when the number of machines on the local net is large.
