Trivial finger daemon

Build Status

This is a trivial finger server that reveals only very limited amounts of information.

Installation

If you got it from git:

autoreconf -si

In any case:

./configure
make
sudo make install

At this point you should be able to do man trivial.fingerd.

inetd configuration (Linux etc)

Add the following line to your /etc/inetd.conf:

finger stream tcp nowait nobody.nogroup /usr/local/sbin/trivial.fingerd /usr/local/sbin/trivial.fingerd

Then restart or reload inetd.

systemd configuration

TODO

launchd configuration (OS X)

make install will install a suitable plist into /Library/LaunchDaemons. To enable it you must use launchctl:

$ sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/uk.org.greenend.fingerd.plist

To disable it do the same but with unload:

$ sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/uk.org.greenend.fingerd.plist

make uninstall will also perform this step.
