I have tried to install GNU finger on our DN10000 and DN2500 but have had some interesting problems. Firstly, I had to fix a bug, which was in the tty location code. (It uses a routine `path_concat', and ends up with the file name /usr/local/etc/gnufinger//usr/local/etc/gnufinger/ttylocs, which doesn't work; the solution is trivial.) However, a problem remains. The login information doesn't go away when one logs out. I.e. after I log out, then finger the machine from another machine, it still says I am logged in. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has fixed this problem. -- Richard Walker (walrmath@durras.anu.edu.au) Department of Computer Science The Australian National University GPO Box 4, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia
