Finger:  Changing the information displayed by the finger command


Q.  My login name is "mickey."  How can I change the information that's
    displayed when someone types:

         finger mickey

A.  At the shell prompt, type:

         chfn

    That'll let you change the information that's kept in the password
    file and displayed by the finger command.  Part of that information is
    also used by programs such as pine.


To get to the shell prompt from the shell menu, press ENTER at the menu.
To get to a shell prompt if you have a Personal SLIP/PPP account, use
a telnet client to log in to halcyon using your name and password.
