Hi all:
    Sorry for that many postings...but I think I had misworded my
questions...sorry!!!
    I had once used a program called ison in IRIX environment but I
could not find the binary "ison" that shows an user is logged on.  My
environment is now SunOS and I wonder whether such a program exists for
Sun.  Thanks for helps, please email me.
(Does GNU have it?)

I posted this message long ago but I want to make some
clarifications...that program "ison" (in IRIX)..automatically prompted
you that an user has logged in.  I don't need to "who", "w", "finger"
myself...it prompts me yeah!

What I need is to keep a file which contains all the user ids that I
want to monitor...

Thank you for your help!!!
