Hey, You know the penguin graphic & the info about the 'puter which comes up when booting to a text login? Well, I'm not too hot for the graphic & find the info about the box a huge security hole (same thing comes up when telnetting or ssh'ing in -- though without the graphic). I'd edited the rc file, removed the hard coded graphic & edited the text. It was fine till I'd rebooted. RedHat would (I've read) only display what one wanted after editing that rc file (but I didn't know that when I was running RH). Now, in lm7.2, I really want it gone. What overwrites the changes made in that rc file, so I can get it to stop showing up? Meph -- "I did this 'cause Linux gives me a woody." -Dave '-ddt->' Taylor, announcing DOOM for Linux
