NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     rup - show	host status of local machines (RPC version)

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     rup [ -h ]	[ -l ] [ -t ] [	host ...  ]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     Rup gives a status	similar	to uptime for remote machines;	it broadcasts
     on	the local network, and displays	the responses it receives.

     Normally, the listing is in the order that	responses are received,	but
     this order	can be changed by specifying one of the	options	listed below.

     When host arguments are given, rather than	broadcasting rup will only
     query the list of specified hosts.	 Any sorting options are ignored in
     this case.

     A remote host will	only respond if	it is running the rstatd daemon, which
     is	normally started up from inetd(1M).

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

     -h	  Sort the display alphabetically by host name.

     -l	  Sort the display by load average.

     -t	  Sort the display by the length of time the systems have been up.

SEE ALSO    [Toc]    [Back]

BUGS    [Toc]    [Back]

     Broadcasting does not work	through	gateways.
