USAGE
F[inger] [<user_name>][@<host>]
DESCRIPTION
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.
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 @ns9liz (list the known users at host "ns9liz")
f ken@ns9ken (display info about "ken" at host "ns9ken")
