In article <CKD.93Jan5194053@loiosh.eff.org> ckd@eff.org (Christopher Davis) writes: [Lots of irrelevant finger output deleted.] I still fail to see just what connection there is between what fingering my system returns and some ridiculous claims about mail being reliable. Would one of the multitudes who participated in the stampede created by Collier-Brown please explain what connection there is between the two? I really want to know. Or is it just that Dave couldn't defend his nonsensical claims about mail reliability so he started whining about finger? >Cute named pipe trick, actually. Wrong. Guess again. >For whatever reason, I get "Service denied" trying to finger at >skyking directly; The reason is simple: I turned it off because I figured it would annoy the mindless sheep who would rush to try it based on Dave's irrelevant complaint. I am glad to see that it did. >whoever's being paranoid Be careful. You haven't the slightest idea why my finger daemon behaves the way it does, and I doubt that you have a degree in psychiatry or psychology to back up your diagnosis. >should just turn the thing off totally instead of trying to filter it, >because finger u@h1@h2 works fairly often... I really don't care whether a@b@c works or not. I really don't care whether you or DC-B appreciates my plan or not. If you believe anything that fingering skyking tells you, whether you come in through jacobs or not, then you are a fool.
