Just wanted you to know that even though the README file says to move the file
finger to /usr/ucb, it shows how to do it by:

	mv finger /etc/finger
                 ------

This, of course, should be:

	mv finger /usr/ucb/finger

PS:  Isn't cp the prefered way, since it maintains the owner, group and
     mode of the previous version...?
