Thank you so much, I believe I am on the right track. However, there are a few more questions I have. I typed “which sh” and sh is located on /bin/sh. I vi'd a banner file and added #!/bin/sh to the top of the file, then I entered the script code you suggested and when I ran the banner file I get a error:

Usage: banner “up to 10 char arg string” . . .

Am I doing something wrong?

libssh2_banner_set

libssh2_banner_set(3)						  libssh2 manual					     libssh2_banner_set(3)

NAME

       libssh2_banner_set - set the SSH prococol banner for the local client

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libssh2.h>

       int libssh2_banner_set(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session, const char *banner);

DESCRIPTION

       This function is DEPRECATED. Use libssh2_session_banner_set(3) instead!

       session - Session instance as returned by libssh2_session_init_ex(3)

       banner - A pointer to a user defined banner

       Set the banner that will be sent to the remote host when the SSH session is started with libssh2_session_handshake(3)
	 This is optional; a banner corresponding to the protocol and libssh2 version will be sent by default.

RETURN VALUE

       Return 0 on success or negative on failure.  It returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block. While LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a
       negative number, it isn't really a failure per se.

AVAILABILITY

       Marked as deprecated since 1.4.0

ERRORS

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC -  An internal memory allocation call failed.

SEE ALSO
