ZLOCATE(1)							    ZLOCATE(1)

NAME
       zlocate - find a user using Zephyr

SYNOPSIS
       zlocate [ -a | -d ] user ...

DESCRIPTION
       Zlocate uses the Zephyr(1) Notification Service to find where a user is
       currently logged in.  If the user is not logged	in,  or	 has  set  his
       location	 information  such that you do not have access to see it, zlo‐
       cate prints "Hidden or not logged-in".  Otherwise,  each	 machine  that
       the  user  is  currently logged into is printed, along with the time of
       login and location.  The location is usually the X window  system  dis‐
       play  name of the user's display, but may be the terminal name if he is
       not using X or for some other reason is only using the terminal	inter‐
       face to zwgc(1).

       By  default, all zlocate requests are authenticated using Kerberos.  If
       you do not have kerberos tickets, or for some other reason do not  want
       to  authenticate,  the  -d option will turn off authentication.	The -a
       option is the default, authentication on.

DIAGNOSTICS
       zlocate exits with status zero (0) if at least one user was found,  and
       one (1) if no users were found.
