rup(1)




NAME

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


SYNOPSIS

     rup [-hlt]

     rup [host...]


DESCRIPTION

     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.

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

     In the absence of a name service, such as LDAP or  NIS,  rup
     displays host names as numeric IP addresses.


OPTIONS

     -h    Sort the display alphabetically by host name.

     -l    Sort the display by load average.

     -t    Sort the display by up time.
