System name: m11-115-5

Display type: SM
What were you trying to do?
/usr/athena/finger sabet krishna sml
(krishna was the only one logged in)
What's wrong:
You'll notice the output from the finger information... under
"krishna"'s finger info, it says that he's been "On since Sabet A
Chowdhury", who was the first user in the finger list.
