Hi,

I have a machine which has a number of users, and its a 'possibility' tha=
t=20
they could do something they shouldnt. What are the reasons which I may n=
ot=20
want finger enabled?=20

(The machine has sendmail and httpd, so a DoS through the finger port is=20
probably not an issue)

Regards,
Jacob
