Subject: Finger Daemon NLM (a new one)

Greetings,
    I've finally managed to get 'control' of a piece of code I wrote a
while ago...  It's really simple and REALLY straightforward, but I
heard that a bunch of folks were interested.  It was a 'test' I wrote to
learn TCP/IP code under Novell Netware NLM's.

    It's a pretty nice finger daemon.  It allows users to set up their
own _PLAN files, _PROJECT's, returns data in almost perfect Unix
format, uses their connection numbers for their tty's, well, here's an
example...

$ finger @storm.mcafee.com
>[storm.mcafee.com] 
>Login       Name              TTY When      Where
>supervisor  System Manager    001 Fri 16:51 00800F78C646A4
>supervisor  System Manager    002 Mon 22:25 0000C067C646A4
>chuck       Chuck Farley      003 Tue 10:24 00AA002FC646A4
>supervisor  System Manager    004 Tue 13:19 0000C0F4C646A4

    And...

$ finger supervisor@storm.mcafee.com
>[storm.mcafee.com]
>Login name: supervisor			In real life: System Manager
>Currently logged in from 00800F780480
>Project: MHS-Programming, of course...
>Plan: 
>Plan?  I don't need no stinking plan!

>Ahhh, maybe I do anyway.

    If folks are interested, I could drop it someplace.  I finally got
permission from my company to let people have it, as long as the company
is not associated in any way with the program!

    It's pretty small, and the docs for it are really minimal.  If you'd
like to give it a shot, drop me a line either by responding to this,
or sending email to mrs@netcom.com...  Mentioning 'Finger' in the subject
would help a lot there...  *grin*

    I hope I can help some folks out!  I'm not looking to charge money for
it, so don't worry about that.  On the other side, I can't support it.  If
it doesn't work for you, I'd *LIKE* to know about it, but I can't guarantee
I'll be able to fix it for you.
