I'm trying to remember how to change my remote "login:" prompt in Red Hat 6.2.
Here's the tty# local login screen with the hostname "sandbox" preceding the "login:" prompt: Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot) Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i586 sandbox login: But when I try to connect remotely (ie. via ssh/telnet) I get a "login:" prompt without the hostname: Red Hat Linux release 6.2 (Zoot) Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 on an i586 login: I've tried altering the default mingetty's in /etc/inittab to "mgetty -p '@ login: ' tty1" but it gives me some kind of AT modem string and I'm unable to enter a username/password at all. I also don't think changing tty1 to pts/0 etc would work. Does anybody know how to customize the remote "login:" prompt in Red Hat ? Do I have to change something in inetd.conf ?
