Hi everone, i have a small strange problem.  Does anyone know
why when i modify the default terminal setting in gettytab to
place a banner message at the login prompt, it only effects
the console and serial line login prompts but not those setup
by pseudo terminals via telnet or rlogin?
Please mail me with you insights, thanks,
perplexed (and somewhat-too-busy-to-RTFM) admin,
jt
