NAME
issue.net - Network issue identification file
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/issue.net file is a freely formatted ASCII file. If present,
the telnetd daemon reads this file and writes its contents over a new
telnet connection prior to starting the login dialog.
Use this file to store messages that are longer than the message field
for entries in the /etc/gettydefs file.
Note
You must be aware of the size limits of all potential output devices as
you create /etc/issue.net messages. Some devices (for example, small
screens) might not hold the messages you enter into the file and will
truncate the messages.
FILES
