Telnet Banner
I need to put a telnet banner on AIX 4.3 and 5.1 servers, so the users can see a warning message before logging into the system. I know /etc/motd will give the message after the login. Basically what I am asking is how do I tell system to read the /etc/issue file on AIX?.
Thank you, in advance for you reply.

/etc/security/login.cfg is for that purpose on AIX...
getty opens /etc/issue on hp-ux etc.. on AIX it opens /etc/security/login.cfg... also look at this link... use the herald = "string to show to user".. I don't know how to display multiple line messages... http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/aix/fil.../login.cfg.htm Cheers! Vishnu. Last edited by Vishnu; 11-12-2002 at 01:23 PM. |

To add newlines to the login screen, you need to use the following escape sequence: \r\n (CRNL).
Example: herald = "\r\n\r\nAuthorized login only\r\nlogin: " Will be displayed with two blank lines after you logout (add as many as you want to clear the screen): Authorized login only login: _CURSOR IS HERE |
Linear Mode
