 RUSERS(1)               System General Commands Manual               RUSERS(1)
 
NAME
      rusers - who is logged in to machines on local network
 
SYNOPSIS
      rusers [-al] [host ...]
 
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 applica­
              ble).
 
 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 exces­
              sively 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.
