| Guess not, it's just FreeBSD "out of the box". Do I stop fingerd
| running by commenting out the finger entries in /etc/inetd.conf?

yes.. don't forget to do a 'kill -1 `cat /var/run/inetd.pid`' so that
inetd reloads the /etc/inetd.conf file.

| 
| BTW, why does fingerd not show up with ``ps -ax''?

The finger daemon is started by inetd and will only show in the process list
when it is running.
