How do I change my "In Real Life" name and other info?

To change your "real life" name, office info, etc., type chfinger and then simply write in what you want your finger info to be. (Moved from AXIS to MHC August 2001.)

To change your organization. At the prompt, type pico .login. This is your "login file" and it saves a lot of needed info so your account won't backfile and such. Do not change anything listed there yet. (Although there is one change you can make that I will get to soon). To put in a new organization, go to the end of the list where things start with setenv. Add a new line. On that blank line, type in setenv ORGANIZATION "", and between those quotation marks, put whatever you want your organization to be.
