Bug 973211

Problem Decription 
--------------------------------------
rwho supposed to return the users "who is logged in on local machines for all machines on the local network" same as who and finger

Then to the Fedora19 lpar, one user ssh session is created from local network and 2 ssh sessions are created from remote network.

The rwho output is not reflected immediately unlike 'who' and 'finger'. 

who/finger command returns like this
[root@localhost /]# who
root     hvc0         2013-05-23 05:49
root     pts/0        2013-05-23 06:07  (machine from remote network)
root     pts/1        2013-05-23 06:46 (machine from local network
root     pts/2        2013-05-23 06:48 (machine from remote network)
[root@localhost /]# finger
Login     Name       Tty      Idle  Login Time   Office     Office Phone   Host
root      root       hvc0     1:16  May 23 05:49           
root      root       pts/0          May 23 06:07                           (machine from remote network)
root      root       pts/1      36  May 23 06:46                           (machine from localnetwork)
root      root       pts/2      32  May 23 06:48                           (machine from remote network)

rwho does not reflect the current users login/logout instantly as who and finger does. it takes some time to reflect.
1> I logged into the system as root, rwho shows like this
[root@localhost ~]# rwho
root     localhost:pts/0 May 24 06:05

2> Then I tried to login as root1 in another session, rwho still shows

[root@localhost ~]# rwho
root     localhost:pts/0 May 24 06:05

3> Then I looged in as root2 in another session, rwho still shows
[root@localhost ~]# rwho
root     localhost:pts/0 May 24 06:05

Output
These other users are getting reflected in rwho after a long time may be after 10 minutes or else after restarting the rwhod service. But in this case who and finger act immediately.


It should act instantly as other login sessions opened, like below
[root@localhost ~]# rwho
root     localhost:pts/0 May 24 06:19
root1    localhost:pts/2 May 24 06:33
root2    localhost:pts/3 May 24 06:33


This problem holds same for logout condition also.

As per the discussion on ST, 
The issue is seen on F19 Beta as well.
