I am running Tru64 5.1 on an ES40 and notice what appears to be a bug in
the finger command. If I do a finger on user xxx it shows that they
are still logged in numerous times even though they arent logged in at
all. This all goes away with the next reboot. I searched through the
archives and did find that this had been posted before and the guy said
he had received a perl script to clean up the utmp file that the error
comes from , from Dr. Blinn. The script was not included :-(

Anyone have any suggestions for fixing this.....anyone know what is
causing it in the first place??

thanks,
darryl
