Listing all remote hosts

Edit online

You can list remote hosts with the ruser command, or SMIT.

The following conditions must be met to list remote hosts:
  • Your system must be configured to communicate as a remote print server.
  • The lpd daemon must be installed on your system.
  • To list remote hosts, you must understand naming conventions for TCP/IP.
Note: The information in this how-to scenario was tested using specific versions of AIX. The results you obtain might vary significantly depending on your version and level of AIX.
At the system prompt, type smit lshostslpd and then follow the instructions to complete the task.

You can also use the ruser -sP command.
