This article is archived in all the usual FAQ archives, including: http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/unix-faq/faq/part4/faq-doc-9.html An easy thing that you can do to see if anyone has fingered you is type the following at your Unix prompt: ls -lu $HOME/.plan This tells you the last time someone accessed your .plan, but it doesn't tell you who it was. I have this in my .login because it's interesting to see when the last time someone was checking on me! [Note that under AFS (Andrew File System, a distributed filesystem), ls -lu $HOME/.plan will not work due to the fact that AFS has no notion of ``atime'', or ``last accessed time''.] User Contributions:Top Document: Signature, Finger, & Customized Headers FAQ Previous Document: ... ... 2.2.2 Creating Your .plan and .project files Next Document: ... ... 2.3.1 Backfinger Script Single Page [ Usenet FAQs | Web FAQs | Documents | RFC Index ] Send corrections/additions to the FAQ Maintainer: FAQ Editor <faq-editor@ii.com>
