1  /*
2   * safe_finger - finger client wrapper that protects against nasty stuff
3   * from finger servers. Use this program for automatic reverse finger
4   * probes, not the raw finger command.
5   *
6   * Build with: cc -o safe_finger safe_finger.c
7   *
8   * The problem: some programs may react to stuff in the first column. Other
9   * programs may get upset by thrash anywhere on a line. File systems may
10   * fill up as the finger server keeps sending data. Text editors may bomb
11   * out on extremely long lines. The finger server may take forever because
12   * it is somehow wedged. The code below takes care of all this badness.
