I'm running Etch on my new box and getting it set up. /etc/motd now points to /var/run/motd and there's a file /etc/motd.tail
I've tried man motd but it doesn't mention this new setup. I don't want to break whatever this is, but I don't want the default motd and have scripts that put reminders into motd (e.g. 2006-10-30 update aptitude) so that I have to actually remove the comment once I've done it. This way I don't forget. What is /etc/motd.tail, why is this like this, and where do I echo my reminders? Thanks, Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
