+.Sh NAME
+.Nm finger.conf
+.Nd
+.Xr finger 1
+alias configuration file
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The optional
+.Nm
+file is used to provide aliases that can be fingered by local
+and network users.
+This may be useful where a user's login name is not the same
+as their preferred mail address, or for providing virtual login names
+than can be fingered.
+.Pp
+Lines beginning with ``#'' are comments.
+Other lines must consist of an
+alias name and a target name separated by a colon.
+A target name should be either a user, a forward
+reference to another alias or the path of a world readable file.
+.Pp
+Where an alias points to a file, the contents of that file will be displayed
+when the alias is fingered.
