Package finger-server

The finger daemon

Finger is a utility which allows users to see information about system
users (login name, home directory, name, how long they've been logged
in to the system, etc.). The finger-server package includes a standard
finger server. The server daemon (fingerd) must be started using
systemctl to receive finger requests.

You should install finger-server if your system is used by multiple users
and you'd like finger information to be available.

Version: 0.17
