System Message(s) of the Day
After you enter your username and password while logging into one of our systems, you will typically see set of news items that are pertinent to that particular system. These are commonly called the "messages of the day" or MOTD. It is STRONGLY recommended that you read these news items. They are typically stored in /etc/motd on every system. The motd command is provided for convenient access to the MOTD on any system. An example of the news items is shown below:
