    (I dont run finger to the outside..only within the machine itself).

    I am running 4.9 and noticed that finger will not resolve internal IPs whereas
    it will resolve external IPs sorta...

    For example:

    # finger testacct
    Login: testacct Name: Test Account
    Directory: /home/testacct Shell: /bin/tcsh
    On since Sat Jan 31 11:39 (CST) on ttyp0 from 207.227.112.116
    No Mail.
    No Plan.

    ..but when 'testacct' logs out, the finger information will then reveal the
    NAME of the IP...

    # finger testacct
    Login: testacct Name: Test Account
    Directory: /home/testacct Shell: /bin/tcsh
    Last login Sat Jan 31 11:39 (CST) on ttyp1 from karliscool.cyberly
    No Mail.
    No Plan.

    However on internal telnets within the lan, the live and stale finger
    information only show the IP...it never resolves.

    I run my own DNS and know BIND -very- well. I dont believe that this is a
    DNS issue and nslookup on the LAN IPs all resolves forward/reverse just fine.

    Any thoughts?
