I'm planning on using my BSD box for free shell accounts and what I need is for when someone connects via SSH/telnet something along these lines pop up
Welcome to ninjaBSD. If you are a new user please login with new
login:
Only real thing I have found in regards to changing the message is editing the default: line in /etc/gettytab but that didn't seem to work, in ssh anyway, didn't try in telnet/local login situations.
So anyone who knows how this can be accomplished/if it can be please let me know
Oh its freebsd 7.0

nano -w /etc/ssh/sshd-banner - Populate the banner file with:
Welcome to NinjaShell! (UGN Security was here) - Open your SSHd Config:
nano -w /etc/sshd/sshd_config - Add in a line pointing to your banner:
Banner /etc/ssh/sshd-banner - Save the file and restart your SSHd server:
/etc/init.d/sshd restart - Test by logging into server; it should respond:

On a RedHat Linux (or derivative, such as CentOS, RHEL, or Fedora) machine, it should simply feed out what is in the "/etc/issue.net" file as the Telnet Banner. | | | | Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 390 UGN Member | UGN Member Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 390 | I got the banner using round about your method. However it only displays the message after the person tries to login IE: login: user Welcome to NinjaBSD! Login with new if new user password:
in the gettytab man pages it specifies something about using im and if however both are already specified and the if string is currently pointing to the banner. Here is a c&p of my current gettytab
default:\ :cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200: :if=/etc/issue:\
