Change the "loing as" line


All,

I would like to either change the "login as" or add a disclamer before the "login as" is displayed. I have locked down the access to my server for keyed SSH access only. I have added a line to the motd and to the bannet for ssh. Both of these dispay the message after the user has logged in. I would like to display a message before the user logs in. The message will be a warning that only authorized users are permitted to log in to the system. Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

If you use the Banner option in sshd_config it will be displayed before the user logs in. You will need to use SSH protocol 2 only though.
