Hello.
I'm not sure I understand. finger lastname@mit.edu and finger username@mit.edu
are supported. finger firstname@mit.edu isn't.
You may be thinking of finger firstname@athena.edu (e.g. finger miroslav@athena.edu).
That also will work.
Perhaps you could explain why you think finger with your firstname should
work. As far as I know, that query should not succeed.
Thank you for using Athena
