Re: Disable Finger

[ethan]

I tried that but chkconfig does not register -> command not found. could I just go to /etc/xinetd.d and remove finger ? would that work ? thanks.

IF you are loading fingerd from init (chkconfig) then
you don't need to restart xinetd

if you are loading it from xinetd then chkconfig will not work. Servics
(That I am aware of) do not load from xinetd AND init. One or the other.

[root@yourmachine root]# chkconfig finger off

Done. :)

I prefer "chkconfig --level 2345 finger off". You also forgot "service
xinetd restart". To whomever asked, yes this is necessary.
