I meant it more like this:

(ins)efraim <at> g4:~$ loginctl list-sessions
SESSION  UID USER   SEAT  TTY
      1  118 sddm   seat0
  12683 1000 efraim seat0 tty2
     13 1000 efraim seat0 tty3
  15005 1000 efraim       pts/2

4 sessions listed.

(ins)efraim <at> 3900XT ~$ loginctl list-sessions
SESSION  UID USER   SEAT  TTY
     c1  980 sddm   seat0
     c2 1000 efraim seat0 tty8

2 sessions listed.
(ins)efraim <at> 3900XT ~$ loginctl -H g4 list-sessions
bash: line 1: elogind-stdio-bridge: command not found

It should be possible to interoperate between them
(-H --host=[USER@]HOST    Operate on remote host)
