SYNOPSIS

       chfn [ -f full-name ] [ -o office ] [ -p office-phone ] [ -h home-phone ] [ -u ] [ -v ] [ username ]

DESCRIPTION

       chfn  is  used  to change your finger information.  This information is stored in the /etc/passwd file, and is displayed by the finger pro-

       interactive mode.

   INTERACTIVE MODE
       In interactive mode, chfn will prompt for each field.  At a prompt, you can enter the new information, or just press return  to	leave  the
       field unchanged.  Enter the keyword "none" to make the field blank.
