DOVEADM-WHO(1)                      Dovecot                     DOVEADM-WHO(1)
NAME
       doveadm-who - Show who is logged into the Dovecot server
SYNOPSIS
       doveadm    [GLOBAL    OPTIONS]   who   [-1]   [-f   passdb_field]   [-a
       anvil_socket_path] [user_mask] [ip [/ bits]]
DESCRIPTION
       The who command is used to show which users from which hosts  are  cur-
       rently connected to which service.
GLOBAL OPTIONS
       Global doveadm(1)
       -D
           Enables verbosity and debug messages.
       -O
           Do  not  read any config file, just use defaults. The dovecot_stor-
           age_version setting defaults to the  latest  version,  but  can  be
           overridden with
       -k
           Preserve  entire  environment for doveadm, not just import_environ-
           ment setting.
       -v
           Enables verbosity, including progress counter.
       -i instance-name
           If using multiple Dovecot instances, choose the config  file  based
           on this instance name.
           See instance_name setting for more information.
       -c config-file
           Read  configuration from the given config-file. By default it first
           reads config socket, and  then  falls  back  to  /etc/dovecot/dove-
           cot.conf. You can also point this to config socket of some instance
           running compatible version.
       -o setting=value
           Overrides the configuration setting from  /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
           and from the userdb with the given value. In order to override mul-
           tiple settings, the -o option may be specified multiple times.
       -f formatter
           Specifies the formatter for formatting the output.  Supported  for-
           matters are:
           flow
               prints each line with key=value pairs.
       pager
           prints  each  key: value pair on its own line and separates records
           with form feed character (^L).
       tab
           prints a table header followed by tab separated value lines.
       table
           prints a table header followed by adjusted value lines.
       This command uses by default the output formatter table.
OPTIONS
       -1
           Print one line per user and connection. Otherwise  the  connections
           are grouped by the username.
       -a anvil_socket_path
           This  option is used to specify an alternative socket. The option's
           argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX domain  socket,
           or  a  hostname  and  port  (hostname:port),  in order to connect a
           remote host via a TCP socket.
           By default doveadm(1) will use the socket
       -f passdb_field
           Alternative username field to use  for  querying,  as  returned  by
           passdb.  Only the passdb fields beginning with the user_ prefix are
           tracked.
ARGUMENTS
       ip [/ bits]
           Specify an ip address or network range, in CIDR notation, to reduce
           the result to matching connections.
       user_mask
           List  only  users  whose  login  name matches the user_mask, or the
           alternative username (user_* field) if the -f  parameter  is  used.
           It's also possible to use wildcards in the user name.
EXAMPLE
       Show authenticated sessions, filtered by the client's IP address:
         doveadm who ::1
         username                       # proto (pids)        (ips)
         jane                           2 imap  (30155 30412) (::1)
         $ doveadm who 192.0.2.0/24
         username                        # proto (pids)  (ips)
         john AT example.com                1 imap  (30257) (192.0.2.34)
       Show authenticated sessions, filtered by username:
         doveadm who pvo
         username         # proto (pids)                    (ips)
         pvo              1 sieve (30343)                   (fd95:4eed:38ba::25)
         pvo              4 imap  (25693 25686 25679 25669) (fd95:4eed:38ba::25)
         $ doveadm who ja\*
         username                    # proto (pids)        (ips)
         james                       1 imap  (30091)       (127.0.0.1)
         jane                        2 imap  (30155 30412) (::1)
