our grenzland #pubnix has of course the #finger command, because it is after all supposed to be unixy.
the finger installed turns out to be the #BSD version, despite the pubnix running on #debian (because that's what you get when you install it).
It bugs me more than it should that you can't see the last login of a fingered user because BSD finger queries a different file than what debian uses for lastlogins. it keeps claiming I never logged into the system, despite me running the command
