[I post this as it might be of general interest]

I've written a small program that monitors telnetd/rlogind on a SVR3.2 and
it should be easy to adapt it to monitor the finger port.

How it works:
  - started by inetd instead of the usual daemon
  - issues a gethostbyaddr and if it succeed a gethostbyname to check the
    reverse mapping
  - gives control to the system daemon (rlogind, telnetd or whatever you want).
  - Administrator is free to choose any action if the DNS resolution fails.

For people interested, you can FTP anonymously the package at host
