Finger command in DOS
« on: September 30, 2004, 04:59:12 AM »
Quick question for all you budding unix/dos users:

I'm trying to list a machine name across a network, running Windows NT.

I type at the command prompt:

finger -l sq8469

sq8469 is the machine name and I'm trying to get more info about the user.

It returns the following:

-> finger: connect::Connection refused

Anyone know why it won't connect?
Ping seems to work okay.

Thanks
