NAME¶
rusers —
who is logged in to machines
on local network
SYNOPSIS¶
DESCRIPTION¶
The
rusers command produces output similar to
who, but for the list of hosts or all machines on the local
network. For each host responding to the rusers query, the hostname with the
names of the users currently logged on is printed on each line. The rusers
command will wait for one minute to catch late responders.
The following options are available:
- -a
- Print all machines responding even if no one is currently
logged in.
- -l
- Print a long format listing. This includes the user name,
host name, tty that the user is logged in to, the date and time the user
logged in, the amount of time since the user typed on the keyboard, and
the remote host they logged in from (if applicable).
DIAGNOSTICS¶
- rusers: RPC: Program not
registered
- The rpc.rusersd(8) daemon has not been
started on the remote host.
- rusers: RPC: Timed out
- A communication error occurred. Either the network is
excessively congested, or the rpc.rusersd(8) daemon has
terminated on the remote host.
- rusers: RPC: Port mapper
failure - RPC: Timed out
- The remote host is not running the portmapper (see
portmap(8) ), and cannot accomodate any RPC-based
services. The host may be down.
