## Simple Finger
|
||
|
I wanted an easy to use finger server that didn't need to expose my IP and stuff to the internet so I wrote this one.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It doesn't expose your user information to the net without a '.singerrc' file placed in your home directory (it automatically detects if you have a weird home directory).
|
||
|
|
||
|
It requires root privileges so it can bind on port 79 (the commonly used finger port).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## .singerrc file
|
||
|
If the file is not empty, its contents will be sent over to the client.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If it isn't present, the user will be hidden from singer's vision.
