I would consider /etc/issue, /etc/banner or perhaps /etc/herald although these do depend on what service is offering the connection. Assuming you are connecting with telnet then have a look in your manual pages for telnetd to see what the service will do. I think I've seen this in the login page too, but I can't remember where or if perhaps I'm even making that up.
Am I right that you are looking for the pre-login banner/warning/welcome message and login prompt? The /etc/motd is usually displayed post-login, but of course it could be used pre-login too.
I hope that this helps,
Robin

login.krb5
LOGIN(8) System Manager's Manual LOGIN(8)
NAME
login.krb5 - kerberos enhanced login program
SYNOPSIS
login.krb5 [-p] [-fFe username] [-r | -k | -K | -h hostname]
DESCRIPTION
login.krb5 is a modification of the BSD login program which is used for two functions. It is the sub-process used by krlogind and telnetd
to initiate a user session and it is a replacement for the command-line login program which, when invoked with a password, acquires Ker-
beros tickets for the user.
login.krb5 will prompt for a username, or take one on the command line, as login.krb5 username and will then prompt for a password. This
password will be used to acquire Kerberos Version 5 tickets (if possible.) It will also attempt to run aklog to get AFS tokens for the
user. The version 5 tickets will be tested against a local krb5.keytab if it is available, in order to verify the tickets, before letting
the user in. However, if the password matches the entry in /etc/passwd the user will be unconditionally allowed (permitting use of the
machine in case of network failure.)
OPTIONS
-p preserve the current environment
-r hostname
pass hostname to rlogind. Must be the last argument.
-h hostname
pass hostname to telnetd, etc. Must be the last argument.
-f name
Perform pre-authenticated login, e.g., datakit, xterm, etc.; allows preauthenticated login as root.
-F name
Perform pre-authenticated login, e.g., datakit, xterm, etc.; allows preauthenticated login as root.
-e name
Perform pre-authenticated, encrypted login. Must do term negotiation.
CONFIGURATION
login.krb5 is also configured via krb5.conf using the login stanza. A collection of options dealing with initial authentication are pro-
vided:
krb5_get_tickets
Use password to get V5 tickets. Default value true.
krb_run_aklog
Attempt to run aklog. Default value false.
aklog_path
Where to find it [not yet implemented.] Default value $(prefix)/bin/aklog.
accept_passwd
Don't accept plaintext passwords [not yet implemented]. Default value false.
DIAGNOSTICS
All diagnostic messages are returned on the connection or tty associated with stderr.
