Abstract
This RFC specifies a standard for the ARPA Internet community. Hosts on the ARPA Internet that choose to implement an Active Users Protocol are expected to adopt and implement this standard.
A useful debugging and measurement tool is an active users service. An active users service simply sends a list of the currently active users on the host without regard to the input.
An active user is one logged in, such as listed in SYSTAT or WHO.
