F[inger] [<user_name>][@<host>]
The finger command retrieves personal information about users of a
system. When used by itself, a list of known users on the current
system will be displayed. When a user_name is added to the command,
finger will display information about that particular user.
As of v1.05, it will show if and when the user last logged in, as
well as information set in the users finger-file, if set.
The same functions detailed above may be performed on some other
TCP/IP host connected to the network. Just add the "@<host>" to the
finger command as specified in the usage line above. To get a list
of the users on a remote system, enter "finger" followed by a
<SPACE> and an "@", then the host name. To get information about a
remote user, simply insert the user name before the "@".
EXAMPLES
finger (list the known users on this system)
f sysop (list info about the local user "sysop")
f @wg7j (list the known users at host "wg7j")
f johan@wg7j (display info about "johan" at host "wg7j")
