We also use it for the legal warning.  Apparently some hacker got off
because a log message or motd said "welcome" or some such word so ours
has to say stuff about criminal penalties blah blah blah.

We use the LOGMSG, sparingly, as a tool to alert users to upcoming
events that will affect them. One such recent event was a change in the
policy regarding idle users. We keep the LOGMSG for a short duration,
then delete the file. 

 

We want the users to recognize that something different is happening, so
we do not display a LOGMSG at every logon. That way, it is an unusual
event that might jolt them into a state of awareness.

Richard Schuh

Does anyone on this list use the LogMsg_File feature in the SYSTEM
CONFIG file and if so what are you doing with it? 
I know what it's for.  I'm just wondering what people are doing with it.

Thanks, 
Steve
