Ultimately, I'd like "who -Hu" to produce output in the following format:

NAME     LINE         TIME         IDLE          PID COMMENT
tomf     pts/0        May 20 14:41   .          1455 (tomf)


Essentially, the program uses the value in the PID column for each line of output, and 
does an inner join with the output of "ps -ef" command.  But, the version of "who" 
running on the customer's AS 2.1 system omits the PID column from the output and the 
join process fails.

I found out sh-utils-2.0.12 package includes a POSIX version of "who" that displays 
the PID column.  Near as I can tell, sometime in the last couple of years sh-utils was 
folded into coreutils... So, I'm trying to find out if there is an updated coreutils 
package (or sh-utils package) for AS 2.1 that provides the POSIX version of "who".  
Hopefully, that makes sense.

I've spent a few hours Googling today and haven't found anything telling me whether or 
not there is an updated version of either of these packages for AS 2.1.  I have no 
clue where to get answers to questions about package-version compatibility for RH 
distributions.  So, just knowing where I can get answers to these questions would be 
helpful.
