What were you trying to do?
Finger at this workstation
What's wrong:
fingerd expects to be run as root; it won't run as daemon, which is
how it is set up to run in /etc/inetd.conf
What should have happened:
either fingerd should be fixed so it doesn't have to be run as root
(best solution) or fix the line in inetd.conf.
