whodo(C)

whodo -- who is doing what

Synopsis

/usr/sbin/whodo [-h] [-l] [user]

Description

whodo produces formatted and dated output from information in the /var/adm/utmp, /etc/ps_data, and /proc/pid files.

The display is headed by the date, time, and machine name. For each user logged in, device name, user-ID and login time is shown, followed by a list of active processes associated with the user-ID. The list includes the device name, process-ID, CPU minutes and seconds used, and process name.

If user is specified, output is restricted to all sessions pertaining to that user.

The following options are available:

-h: Suppress the heading.
-l: Produce a long form of output. The fields displayed are: the user's login name, the name of the tty the user is on, the time of day the user logged in (in hours:minutes), the idle time -- that is, the time since the user last typed anything (in hours:minutes), the CPU time used by all processes and their children on that terminal (in minutes:seconds), the CPU time used by the currently active processes (in minutes:seconds), and the name and arguments of the current process.
