- The several relevant files:
- in quattor, sites/.../config/motd.sh : script that is called each time you connect as non-root to an ui.
- on UIs, /user/motd_news: the portion to add Announcements.
- in quattor, sites/.../config/motd.tpl : just does the copy of motd.sh in /etc/profile.d/ for relevant hosts.
- The announcements is present only if NEWS is not set to "" in motd_news. The message is in purple by default ($PURP), and is automatically set back to $DEF at the end. Try to keep the message's lines about the same size as the rest.
- To erase it, just put back :
NEWS=""
