UNIX/LINUX Command – rwho

NAME

rwho—Output who is logged in on local machines

SYNOPSIS

rwho -a

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 in to that machine.

If a user 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.
