Notifying users of updates
The notify command is useful for notifying users of changes
to the system. You can use rdist to tell them exactly
what has changed and when. The mail message sent by rdist
looks like:
From: rdist@grande (Remote distribution program) To: julia@yukon Subject: files updated by rdist from grande to yukonThe files updated on yukon are /etc/motd and /etc/passwd.updating: /export/root/yukon/etc/motd updating: /export/root/yukon/etc/passwd
