I was messing around with servers that had a finger server running a few days ago. I think the university of Wisconsin has a finger server running that exposes the name/address for all their faculty and students



For a long time, the university I worked for had multiple big Solaris boxes that were used as shell boxes for faculty and students. After I left, I would still use the finger protocol to see what my old coworkers were up to!
