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.8c

- -h
-
Sort the display alphabetically by host name.
- -l
-
Sort the display by load average.
- -t
-
Sort the display by up time.
