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. +
