Synopsis
finger bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated finger packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The finger utility allows users to display information about the system users,
including their login names, full names, and the time they logged in to the
system.
The update fixes the following bug:
- When the finger utility is run with no additional command line options, it
provides output in the form of a table. Prior to this update, this tabular
output did not include a separate column for information about a host, and this
information was incorrectly displayed in the "Office" column. This update adds a
new column named "Host", so that the host information no longer appears in the
wrong column. (BZ#563291)
All users of finger are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
