Using the UCSD Finger Search Engine  
 
Summary: Use the Finger search to find address information by entering a last name or partial last name along with the e-mail host machine information.

UCSD maintains a finger server (@ucsd.edu) containing student, staff, and faculty information, which is separate from the UCSD Directory.

What to do How to do it
1 Enter the name and e-mail host machine information.
  1. Enter the last name or partial last name of the person you're looking for, along with the e-mail host machine name.
    For example: smith@ucsd.edu

    Note: An e-mail host machine is the system where an e-mail address resides.

  2. Click Go or Enter.

    The search returns names that match the consonants of the last name you entered. You will see either information about the person or a list of last names relatively close to the name you entered.

  3. Try it now:
