Description sa2c 2000-10-02 19:50:00 UTC
If finger takes full path name as user name, it prints out contents of
that file.  Because fingerd executes finger as local information
provider, finger /path/to/file@some.host prints /path/to/file at
some.host.

How-To-Repeat: 
finger /path/to/file@some.host
