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?
