I need to put a telnet banner on AIX 4.3 and 5.1 servers, so the users can see a warning message before logging into the system. I know /etc/motd will give the message after the login. Basically what I am asking is how do I tell system to read the /etc/issue file on AIX?.

nwfsctrl
NWFSCTRL(1) nwfsctrl NWFSCTRL(1)
NAME
nwfsctrl - Perform server command
SYNOPSIS
nwfsctrl [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -p ncpfs path ] -c | -o | -[f]d
nwfsctrl [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -p ncpfs path ] server command
DESCRIPTION
nwfsctrl performs command on server.
OPTIONS
-h
With -h nwfsctrl prints a little help text.
-S server
is the name of the server you want to use.
-U user
user is the user name to use for login. To set the server's time, you need supervisor privileges.
-P password
password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwfstime
prompts for a password.
-n
-n should be given if no password is required for the login. As you need supervisor privileges for setting the date and time, this
option is probably not used very often.
-C
By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off
this conversion by -C.
-o
Open bindery.
-c
Close bindery.
-d
Down fileserver. This command will complain if there are open files on server.
-fd
Down fileserver, regardless of opened files.
load module options...
Load module module with options options... on server. Program will complain if module is already loaded.
unload module
Unload module module from server. Program will complain if module is not loaded.
mount volume
Mount volume volume.
dismount volume
Dismount volume volume. If there are open files on volume, server displays prompt on console. You must go to the server (or telnet/xcon-
sole) and hit Y or N to get beyond this point).
set variable = value
Set server settable variable variable to value value.
open bindery
Open bindery.
close bindery
Close bindery.
enable login
Enable login to file server.
disable login
Disable login to file server.
disable tts
Disable TTS. This probably does not work on Netware 4.11.
enable tts
Enable TTS. This probably does not work on Netware 4.11.
BUGS
Other commands are not written yet (volume, clear connection ...)
