The Finger listing may include such information as:

What You Can Do

The following table lists the capabilities provided by Finger and the sections that explain how to use them.
Capability Section
Display brief information about all users on a host 2.3.1
Display detailed information about one or more specific users on a host 2.3.2
Display information about all users logged into the local OpenVMS Cluster system 2.3.3
Get information from a host that is not directly accessible to your local host 2.4
Make planning and project information about yourself available to other Finger users 2.5

What You Need

The Finger software must be enabled (see your system manager). If the Finger software is not enabled on your local OpenVMS host, when you attempt to display information about users on that host, an error message is returned. For example, the following error message indicates the Finger image was not installed with the privileges required. See your system manager.

%SYSTEM-S-NOTALLPRIV, not all requested privileges authorized 

The Finger utility must be enabled on any remote host for which you want information. If the software does not exist or is disabled on the remote host, an error message is returned, such as the following:

FINGER-I-CONNREF, Connection refused 

2.1 Typing Finger Commands

Use the following rules for command syntax, quotation marks, and wildcards when you type FINGER command lines.

2.1.1 Quotation Marks

By default, the Finger utility translates all user and host name specifications to lowercase. If you specify any letters that must be uppercase, then you must enclose them in quotation marks. In the following example, the UNIX user name includes uppercase letters that need quotation marks around them:

FINGER "B"OB"M"ILLER@BASE1 

2.1.2 Wildcards

Wildcards are not accepted for OpenVMS hosts, but may be valid for some UNIX hosts.

2.1.3 Qualifiers

Qualifiers to the FINGER command must follow immediately after the command, preceding the user and/or host name. If the qualifier follows the user and/or host name, the Finger utility interprets the qualifier as a user name. For example, in the following command the qualifier /FULL incorrectly appears after the user specification. As indicated by the last line in the display, the Finger server interprets "/FULL" as a user login name.

$ FINGER ROLLINS /FULL
Username     Program      Login     Term/Location 
ROLLINS      $            Mon 15:02 64626::ROLLINS

Project: Homeopathic medicine/Silica 
No Plan. 
Login name: /FULL          In real life: ??? 

The following example shows the correct position of the qualifier (the information displayed now includes user ROLLINS' real name and current program).

2.2 Obtaining Online Help

You can obtain online help for the Finger utility and use of the FINGER command by typing either of the following commands:

$ HELP TCP_IP_SERVICES DISPLAYING_USER_INFORMATION
$ HELP TCP_IP_SERVICES FINGER_COMMAND

2.3 Displaying Information about Users

To display information about all users on a remote host, enter the FINGER command followed by the host name (FINGER @hostname). To display more detailed information about a particular user, specify the user name with the host name (format FINGER username@hostname). To display information about all users on your local host, enter the FINGER command without specifying a host name. To display detailed information about a specific user on your local host, enter the FINGER command followed by the user name. Table 2-1 summarizes the different ways to display user information.

Table 2-1 Ways of Displaying Information
If you need ... Use this command...
Brief information about all users on a remote host FINGER @ hostname
Brief information about all users on your local host FINGER
Brief information about all users on your cluster FINGER/CLUSTER
Detailed information about a specific user on a remote host FINGER username@ hostname
Detailed information several users on a remote host FINGER user1name@ hostname user2name@ hostname
Detailed information about a specific user on your local host FINGER username
Detailed information about several users on your local host FINGER user1name user2name
More detailed information about users on the local host, including their real name and all logins FINGER/FULL
Detailed information about a specific local user and brief information about all local users FINGER/ALL username

2.3.1 Displaying Information About All Users

To display brief information about all users on a host, use the FINGER command with the host name only, in the format @hostname. If you use the FINGER command alone (without specifying a host name), you receive brief information about all users on your local system. The following example shows how to display brief information about all users on remote host SCIENCE:
$ FINGER @SCIENCE
[science.ucd.edu] 
Username     Program      Login     Term/Location

2.3.2 Displaying Detailed Information About Specific Users

To display details about one or more users on a remote host, specify the user name or a list of user names, including the host name with each user name, as shown in the examples that follow. To display more information about users on your local host, specify the user name(s) without a host name. The information about each user includes the following items in addition to the user (login) name, program, login time, and terminal/location that is returned in the default, brief display:

The following examples show how to display information about specific users.

  1. This example shows how to receive detailed information about user HOWE on host BEARINGS. The second line of information indicates user HOWE is logged on and using the Mail utility.
    $ FINGER HOWE@BEARINGS
    [bearings.us.beacorp.com] 
    Username     Program      Login     Term/Location 
    HOWE         MAIL         Mon 15:02 84640::HOWE

  2. To display information about several specific users on a remote host, specify each username@hostname separated by a space. This example shows how to display detailed information about users HOWE and JESSE on host BEARINGS, and user billings on UNIX host class. Note that user HOWE is not currently logged on to host BEARINGS. JESSE is logged on, so FINGER includes a line of information for JESSE including the program JESSE is using (DCL at present) and the time of login.

  4. To specify detailed information about specific users and brief information about the remaining logged-in users on a local host, use the the /ALL qualifier as in this example, which displays specific information about user HOWE at the local host plus brief information about all other users logged in. The output of this command is similar to that shown in the preceding example.
    $ FINGER/ALL HOWE
    

2.3.3 Displaying Information about Users on Your Cluster

To display information about users on all nodes in your local OpenVMS Cluster, use the /CLUSTER qualifier, as in the following examples.

  1. This example shows the default display for the FINGER/CLUSTER command.
    $ FINGER/CLUSTER
    Username     Node   Program      Login     Term/Location

2.4 Forwarding Information from Host to Host

If your host does not have a direct connection to a remote host, you can use a forwarding host to get the information about users on that remote host. Your local host must be able to connect directly to the forwarding host, and the forwarding host must be able to connect directly to the destination. Specify the destination host and the forwarding host in the following format: username@destination_host@forwarding_host. For example, system UNION.CTSTATEU.EDU is not directly reachable, but you can get information from it indirectly through a gateway named U-GW.PA.ABCORP.COM. You would enter the following command to get information about user JONES on host UNION.CTSTATEU.EDU:

$ FINGER JONES@UNION.CTSTATEU.EDU@U-GW.PA.ABCORP.COM

By default, the Finger server does not allow queries to be forwarded from one host to another. To enable forwarding on the Finger server, see your system manager.

2.5 Making Your Information Available to Other Users

You can use the Finger utility to display a user's project and plans. The project (a single line of text) indicates the user's current project, work assignment, or work group. The user's plans can include several lines of information, such as where the user will be throughout the week, what the user plans to accomplish during the week, or even such information as the user's Web site, E-mail address, and telephone number, as in the following example:

I will be in my office Monday through Wednesday working at the S.F. lab. 
On Thursday and Friday, I will be at UC Irvine for a conference. 
Web site http://bio.ucd.edu/peters/r_peters.html 

If you want to make such information about yourself available to other users through the Finger utility, create the following files in your home directory and add the appropriate information:
.PLAN A file that contains your plans, whereabouts, and other information you want to have displayed. The file can contain more than one line.
.PROJECT A file that specifies your project and/or work group. The file can contain only one line.

2.6 Command Description

To use FINGER commands, type them at the DCL prompt.

This section provides a complete description of the FINGER command, its parameters, and qualifiers.


FINGER

Displays information about users on a host. You can display:

Specifying the FINGER command without a user or host specification displays information about users logged in on your local system.


Format

FINGER [/ALL | /CLUSTER | /FULL] [username][@hostname]


PARAMETERS

username

Optional. Required for detailed information about a user.

Specify the user login name. For information about a user on your local system, do not include the @hostname. For information about a user on a remote system, include the host name (username@hostname).

@hostname

Optional. Required for information about users on a remote system.

For information about a specific user on a remote host, include the user name with the host name (username@hostname). For information about all users on the remote host, specify the host name only (@hostname). Omit the host name to display information about users on your local host.


QUALIFIERS

/ALL

Optional. Use when specifying a local user name. The /ALL qualifier must follow immediately after the FINGER command.

Displays a brief listing of all users in addition to detailed information about any specified users. Use this qualifier primarily for displaying information about users on the local host. The /ALL qualifier is ignored by most remote Finger servers when you specify a remote host name in the command line. To display brief information about all users on a remote host in addition to detailed information about specific users, specify the user@hostname format for each user plus @hostname (to list brief information about all users). Separate each user@hostname and @hostname specification with a space.

/CLUSTER

Optional. The /CLUSTER qualifier must follow immediately after the FINGER command. Do not specify a remote host name with this qualifier.

Displays information about all users logged into the local OpenVMS Cluster system.

/FULL

Optional. The /FULL qualifier must follow immediately after the FINGER command.

Displays detailed information such as the user's real name and all logins of the user (without /FULL, the display includes the last login only). Use this qualifier primarily for displaying information about users on the local host.

3.1 Typing FTP Commands

Use the following rules for command syntax, quotation marks, and wildcards when you type FTP command lines.

3.1.1 DCL and UNIX Command Formats

With the FTP command and most of the commands at the FTP prompt, you can use either DCL-style or UNIX-style syntax. For example, the DCL-style DIRECTORY and UNIX-style ls commands produce the same results, as shown in the following example:

FTP> DIRECTORY/BRIEF *.DIR
200 PORT command successful 
150 Opening data connection for DISK$2:[FLIGHT]*.DIR (11.21.308.100,2643) 
com.dir;1 
dis.dir;1 
mail.dir;1 
 
226 NLST Directory transfer complete. 
43 bytes received in 00:00:00.09 seconds (0.42 Kbytes/s) 
FTP> 
FTP> ls  *.dir 
200 PORT command successful 
150 Opening data connection for DISK$2:[FLIGHT]*.DIR (11.21.308.100,2644) 
com.dir;1 
dis.dir;1 
mail.dir;1 
 
226 NLST Directory transfer complete. 
43 bytes received in 00:00:00.04 seconds (1.02 Kbytes/s) 
FTP> 

3.1.2 Quotation Marks

When you communicate with a non-OpenVMS host, you need to enclose the following with quotation marks:
