Operating Systems Solaris Persistent Security Banner on Gnome Desktop Post 302566688 by bitlord on Thursday 20th of October 2011 11:02:42 PM

Hi,
I never herd of JEDI used in Windows, but I have experience using it with Solaris. In windows the banner is usually a thin line across the top of the desktop with the security label centered. It doesn't work like this in Solaris. Most of the time the banner is on Solaris TX systems and not regular Solaris systems. On the top menu bar of the JDS can display in the blank area to the right, but not across the whole screen. Also the apps like terminal can be setup to have a banner at the top of the window under the menu. At where I work we have both of them setup. Also we have the desktop background the same color as the label color, example green, red, etc..

I'm not at work right now so I can't look at the system and tell you which files to edit.

Why are you setting this up? It is not required to do this to STIG the box. An easy fix would be to create a walpaper with the label and not let the user change it.

Anyway I hope this helps.
