finger/talk inconsistancies?

[karlheg@inetarena.com (Karl M. Hegbloom)]

 I just noticed that if I do:

xterm &
 (in that xterm now...)
tty
 => /dev/ttyp9
sudo sessreg -a -l ttyp9 -h myhost myname

 ... then in another xterm, `slogin' or `telnet' somewhere off-site,
 and do `finger myname@myhost'.  The output from `cfingerd' here shows
 "ty" under the TTY heading.  `talk myname@mhost' works properly.

sudo sessreg -d -l ttyp9 -h myhost myname
sudo sessreg -d -l p9 -h myhost myname

 ... and now that finger query shows "p9", but the talk request fails.

 I guess we should fix this.
