Ssh login with random qoute banner

I'll be honest here

The one and only time I have done LDAP user and login configuration was for my RHCSA exam, and that was many years ago

I have this interview coming up (for a linux admin position role), and while the other questions I have no problem answering I am stuck with this (image attached)

I am using my own test server; I am running CentOS 7 on Oracle VM

Someone had put this link before here, but how do I make a link work in sshd banner config? I still don't get banner message when I ssh to my test server. I am using SecureCrt 5.5 (its a very old version)

I have also done this link but that only answers half the question.

I can't help feeling that the solution is staring at my face Smilie

a little help here please?
