Ubuntu How to change welcome message

Question

All,

I am using Ubuntu OS in my AWS EC2 instance. My previous developer has created some custom messages once we SSHed into the Instance (Attached). But I would like to change it. Googled extensively, but no luck. Can someone help?Text I want to change is "Live 1A"

Answer 1

Edit the file /etc/motd

motd stands for Message Of The Day

MOTD(5) - Linux Programmer's Manual

NAME motd - message of the day

DESCRIPTION The contents of /etc/motd are displayed by login(1) after a successful login but just before it executes the login shell.

The abbreviation "motd" stands for "message of the day", and this file has been traditionally used for exactly that (it requires much less disk space than mail to all users).
