The Lounge War Stories Do you trust your users to follow your instructions? Post 302961174 by Swathe on Tuesday 24th of November 2015 07:48:03 PM

Usually no. In fact I try to remove as much decision making from a users day to day working life as I can.


If there is some blanket use policy change or instruction that needs to go out organisation wide I have management send it, then if anyone doesn't read and/or follow what has been sent out they can't complain and have their department billed accordingly.

MOTD.TAIL(5)						   Debian Administrator's Manual					      MOTD.TAIL(5)

NAME
motd.tail - Template for building the system message of the day DESCRIPTION
On Debian systems, the system message of the day is rebuilt at each startup, in order to display an accurate information. /etc/motd.tail is the file to edit permanent changes to the message of the day. OVERVIEW
The initiation script /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh prepends a line containing information about the system to /etc/motd.tail and stores the resulting file in /var/run/motd. /etc/motd is a symbolic link to /var/run/motd. This is done to prevent changes to /etc as the system can not assume /etc to be writable. Changes to /etc/motd effectively end up in a file under /var/run which will be regenerated upon reboot. A symbolic link to a different file, such as /etc/motd.static disables this behaviour. FILES
