It seems that finger got some undocumented functionality. When I finger
somebody, I get the line:

On since Fri May  7 13:29:14 1993 on :0.0 on host m1-142-24.MIT.EDU

Which must come from a zlocate.

man finger doesn't mention zlocating people. Is this a bug in the man
page? Are there any command line options for this?

I think I'm using  /usr/ucb/finger, but I might be using
/usr/athena/finger.

Thanks,
