I don't know about anyone else, but I simplified my systems another way.

ben@strontium:~$ finger toor@{strontium,scientia,magnesium}
[strontium.scientia.demon.co.uk]
finger: toor: no such user

[scientia.demon.co.uk]
finger: toor: no such user

[magnesium.scientia.demon.co.uk]
finger: toor: no such user

works for me. :-)
