# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

netkit-rusers: netkit-rusers (show users logged in to machines on local network)
netkit-rusers:
netkit-rusers: The rusers command produces output similar to who, but for the list
netkit-rusers: of hosts or all machines on the local network. For each host
netkit-rusers: responding to the rusers query, the hostname with the names of the
netkit-rusers: users currently logged on is printed on each line. The rusers
netkit-rusers: command will wait for one minute to catch late responders.
netkit-rusers:
netkit-rusers: Portmap and rpc.rusersd must be running on remote machines. Should
netkit-rusers: probably be considered insecure (or at least ill-advised) on public
netkit-rusers: networks.
