I have a problem.  

I created a .plan file and tested it by using the command 'finger rackerma'
It worked.

A friend of mine told me today that I didn't have a plan.  I thought I did so
I checked it again.  This time I used the command 'finger rackerma@sirius'.
This time it didn't work.  I tried 'finger rackerma' again and that worked.

There is obviously something going on here that I don't know about. 
Would anybody care to enlighten me?

Thanks.
