Modify the Security Banner

How can I modify or change the Security Message/Banner which is displayed before the Text/Terminal based Login.

Probably by changing the file /etc/issue

But you should check that someone isn't using a different file - look in /etc/inetd.conf and find the entries for telnetd and rlogind repectively - there will probably be a file mentioned after a -b or -B argument - this will be the file to change.

Once you have changed the /etc/inetd.conf file you can load it with "inetd -c"
