About the lab users script...

This script displays a graphical map of where people are logged in. It may be slightly out-of-date, because it gets its information from rwho which is only updated every five minutes. It doesn't distinguish between people on console and those logged in remotely, because rwho daemons don't report that information reliably.

Unfortunately, the output doesn't look very nice if you have link underlining turned on with a graphical browser. To fix that, select ``no underlines'' or the equivalent from one of your browsers' menus. GSB 217 looks ugly with lynx, because I can't figure out a way to represent it with fewer than 80 columns.

If you don't specify a lab in the URL, it defaults to the lab you're running the Web client from. Off-campus and other users will default to CAB 430, for no good reason.
