Checking identity and connected users

The who command displays who is logged in or gives more detailed information about users and process states.
Depending on the execution mode, the command displays varying information. In administrator execution
mode, the command output is more detailed and shows information about the ID, user name, state, idle time,
and location. In operator execution mode, only the user name being used at the moment is reported, which
helps checking the identity.
