This is the text that you're supposed to see if you didn't
supply any arguments to the finger gateway. An example
connection would be good, but I'm not sure which one we
really want to use. www.mit.edu ? I don't think that would
be a good place. But I'm not sure where we *could* default.

Connections that are refused ("
connection refused") are usually
a product of the system you are fingering,
not of our gateway.
Contact the maintainers of the site you are trying to finger if you
get a connection refused. See our
finger
gateway FAQ for more information. Note in particular that AOL
does not allow finger requests.
Otherwise, if you find a machine for which this finger presents
confusing or misformatted information, please please e-mail the full
machine name to stuffmaster@mit.edu mentioning the situation,
and we'll do what we can to make things work nicely.
