I'm having a problem with FreeBSD 2.2.1 machines not being able to finger
a Xylogics Remote Annex 4000 terminal server.  finger on 2.2.1 machines
seems to work fine with other hosts though, and no problem whatsoever, if
I use a 2.0.5, 2.1.0, or 2.1.5 machine to finger the terminal server. I've
tried machines that were upgraded to FreeBSD 2.2.1, and machines that were
installed with 2.2.1 from scratch.  In either case, 49 out of 50 times I get:

machine-a$ finger @annex1
[annex1]
finger: read: Connection reset by peer
machine-a$

If I copy finger & libc.so.2.2 from a 2.1.5 machine, they work.  I'd rather
not do that, is there another solution?  Is anyone else having this problem?
