The change finger command (chfn) is being disabled for general student access on AIX effective immediately. This is being done due to problems encountered when trying to determine the owners name for an account. In many cases the full name field bears no resemblance to any name that should be associated with the login name. All non-student accounts will continue to have access to the command. We request that they also keep the full name field as a valid name for the owner of the account. The command will remain disabled as long as the files it modifies are the only on-line record of account ownership. All exiting names which do not match will be changed back to the original values.
