" Aug 21, 2003: Please don't use finger.kernel.org for any sort of
automatic monitoring. The number of automatic bots hitting this port
is causing the finger daemon to shut down more often than not. The
same information is available from
http://www.kernel.org/kdist/finger_banner. "

The finger_banner page appears to be current, so perhaps switch to this:

curl http://kernel.org/kdist/finger_banner
