There was a program posted a while back (as in server years ago) call 'id'
that does an excellent job of exactly what you want. It was written by
Greg McGary. At the bottom of a README file I found the following:
-- Greg McGary
-- P.O. Box 286
-- Lincoln, MA 01773
--
-- 9/15/87
--
-- Until the end of 1987,
-- Consulting to Sun's East Coast Division:
-- gmcgary@ecd.sun.com
-- gmcgary@suneast.uu.net
--
-- After that, probably consulting in Europe...
so I am not sure what the current status of this program is. This program
does have a copyright notice on it, so I don't just want to posted it
unless someone can convince me that I want get into any trouble :-).
Type at you later,
