To check the users currently logged in to a Linux system, you can use the “who” command. This command will display the username, terminal name, date and time logged in of all users currently logged into the system.
You can also use the “id” command to view information about the current user or any other user. The “id” command will display the user’s user ID, group ID, and any other groups the user belongs to.
Finally, you can use the “finger” command to view detailed information about a user, including the user’s full name, last login time and terminal, home directory, and shell.
