Short: Secure ARexx finger daemon for AmiTCP
Author: phil@stokes.demon.co.uk (Philip Stokes)
Uploader: phil@stokes.demon.co.uk (Philip Stokes)
Type: comm/tcp
Arexx Finger Daemon With Connection Logging
-------------------------------------------
A simple finger daemon written in ARexx that overcomes the security
risks associated with the AmiTCP in.fingerd. All connections to
port 79 are also logged to a file.
To install, copy this script to AmiTCP:serv/rx.fingerd and make sure
that the script bit is set.
Change the entry for finger in AmiTCP:db/inetd.conf to read:
"finger stream tcp dos bin - rx AmiTCP:serv/rx.fingerd"
This script is based in part on a more basic script that I found
last year - original author unknown. I have modified it to work
correctly with both finger client and telnet connections, and made
several other small alterations.
