I should have explained that better Tomasz - the reason we want it managed 
within AD is to make sure
the text displayed is the same everywhere. If it's part of a local script on 
the individual Linux box,
we have to remember to change it in more than one place. There are other things 
we'd like to do with
the login script though, not just the acceptable use policy display.

Thanks guys - I'll check out the 2 products mentioned

Vintela has a solution to process GPO at the Linux\Unix box.

Is it not possible to make similiar script for Linux running on the 
linux box? What is this script displaying?
