When logging in I get a warning on Raspbian wheezy.
Code: Select all
Linux pi 3.2.27+ #250 PREEMPT Thu Oct 18 19:03:02 BST 2012 armv6l

How can I remove this from all users? I can't find it in .bashrc, and I don't know where else it is.

It comes from /etc/motd (message of the day).

It is the Message Of The Day...

/etc/motd contains:

individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

You can replace the with your own message or delete for no additional message.

Note: You need to have root privileges to modify /etc/motd

Enjoy!

Can I comment lines in motd?
Is it text only? I currently have a script in .bashcr that gives me the IP and some more stuff, could I put this in the motd? The .bashcr script takes a few seconds after the motd to load.

EDIT: Should have checked the comment thing by myself, and I couldn't comment it.
