What were you trying to do?
finger foobar@athena
What's wrong:
(not really a bug, but what I'd consider a misfeature)
It doesn't print out the plan info. What good is a .plan if no one
can read it?
It does print out when finger foobar, but then you need to be on the
same machine. That is, I believe, rather restricted.
What should have happened:
I think there should be some way for people to read my .plan file when
they're looking for me. I know finger foobar@fenchurch will do
the right thing. Why can't finger@athena?
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
