235.Sh BUGS
236The current FINGER protocol RFC requires that the client keep the connection
237fully open until the server closes. This prevents the use of the optimal
238three-packet T/TCP exchange. (Servers which depend on this requirement are
239bogus but have nonetheless been observed in the Internet at large.)
