SSH Login Banner

[TJReed]

All,

Will the following procedure display a banner for a user when connecting to the RSA Authentication Manager 3.0 Appliance via ssh?

1) SSH into the RSA Authentication Manager 3.0

2) Elevate to root (sudo su -)

3) Use vi to create a sshd-banner file:

vi /etc/ssh/sshd-banner

4) Enter the text for the banner

5) Us vi to edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file with the following:

Banner /etc/ssh/sshd-banner

6) Restart sshd with the following command:

/etc/init.d/sshd restart

Thank you,

1. T.J.

Hello T.J. Reed,

These are correct steps to add a banner of your own on the server. Just another information that you can change the path /etc/ssh/sshd-banner to any path that you need.

So kindly check and advise us back if there is any assistance needed from our side.

Best Regards,
