A BSD type (using the network @ nomenclature) finger for hp-ux
is available from me10.lbl.gov. There are no KNOWN security holes,
but as this software is unsupported, use it at your own risk.

-r--r--r--   1 root   staff   120133 Oct  4 18:48 hp-ux/finger_7.0_300.tar.Z
-r--r--r--   1 root   staff   179488 Oct  4 15:08 hp-ux/finger_7.0_800.tar.Z

Here is the Readme file:

	 You should have the following entry in /etc/services:

	 finger          79/tcp

	 The /etc/inetd.conf entry should be like this:

	 finger  stream tcp nowait bin   /usr/local/etc/fingerd  fingerd -l

	 You may substitute /usr/local/etc/fingerd with a path of your choice.
	 You may also specify any or all of the -l, -r, -f options.

	 The finger program should be installed in one of the following directories:
	 /usr/local/bin, /usr/contrib/bin, /usr/bin.  The fingerd server will only
	 search for finger in those directories (in that order).
