---------------------------------------------------------------------
FingerD version 1.2 has been released from Sektor Technologies.
Get it at
http://sektortech.dyndns.com
or
http://sektortech.dyn.ml.org
This server is basically a bug fix for the other version. I have fix a bug that
was making FingerD crash when someone/server send and invalid (ctrl-c)
character to it.
What is it?
Well basically. A Finger server provides information to any one who requests
it. You just edit a file (fingerd.msg) and add information like your E-mail,
WWW site, FTP site, information about meetings, etc. Every major OS should
(better :-) ) have a finger client (finger.exe). But not every OS has the
server.
