For example, in /etc/security/login.cfg, there are stanzas you can set up
for individual ports or default. The 'herald' value is what you want to
change. The one below clears the screen and places system name and a
warning up before the login prompt (part of the herald):

default:
        sak_enabled = false
        logintimes =
        logindisable = 0
        logininterval = 0
        loginreenable = 0
        logindelay = 0
        herald =
"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAPDEV\n\rAIX 4.1.5\n\rAccess to this system is subject to
audit.\r
\n\n\rlogin: "

Hello all,

I'm looking for a way to modify the text you see when
you first get the login prompt. I'm not talking about
the /etc/motd file that displays after you log in, I'm
talking about this:

AIX Version 5
(C) Copyrights by IBM and by others 1982, 2000.
login:

Is there any way that I can change this?

Thanks!

-Stephen Spalding
