What does it mean if /finger shows no data under version?

Is that what it shows for all users of Combat?  Or what does it mean?

That worked after i switched it on:
You can get other's client version. Use:
/finger username

You will see lots info including for example: "Client: Warcraft II    Ver: 2.0.2.0   Country: CAN"
And became broken when i removed it:
I removed versioncheck now.
I have no plans to enable it again, if you mean to prevent hacking, i have plans for releasing different software soon.
Need help to translate War2Combat to German, French, Italian, Polish or another language: http://forum.war2.ru/index.php/topic,4728.0.html
Please, contact me if you are interested in that.

Oh, so this is disabled now. 

Is it correct that for it to be enabled, everyone must have their version "checked" at log-in and that this creates a login problem for some people?  I guess I didn't understand that completely before.
