DFINGER is a DNET client program that does basically the same thing as
the typical "finger" command you find usually with TCP/IP.
DFINGER must be run from the CLI or SHELL.
You use DFINGER by simply typing DFINGER and then the name and address
of the person you wish to examine.
For example, to get information on someone who's full internet address
(login name and site) is rkent@sparc1.csubak.edu, you would
simply type:
dfinger rkent@sparc1.csubak.edu
Additionally, on many systems you can display a list of all the users
currently logged in.
For example, to see who is presently logged in to sparc1.csubak.edu you
would type:
dfinger @sparc1.csubak.edu
