What file would I have to go about editing to change the Welcome to BackTrack 5 message that you see in the virtual terminal, right after you type in your login credentials?
alright so I found the file /etc/motd but it gets overwritten at every reboot so changes never take effect.. I also have no motd.tail file. Any ideas?
hmm funny I was looking for an answer a couple of days ago too. Dude, I google and researched some and found out how to do it. I'll share, but you should google some first, its best if you learn by yourself.
reboot/logoff, then it should be good.Code:nano /etc/update-motd.d/10-help-text
Mine looks like this,
Code:#!/bin/sh
TERM=linux
export TERM
clear
echo "[*] Welcome Christian"
echo ""
So I only get a "Welcome Christian" and then I can startx.
