I've been away for a while and missed the change and complexity added to /etc/motd. I figured it out but I was led astray by not knowing that it was converted into a service that only runs at boot time. If you just follow the instructions in the template file, you will nothing changes. As a suggestion, maybe change this line in the /etc/motd.template file: Edit /etc/motd.template to change this login announcement. to: Edit /etc/motd.template to change this login announcement and reboot or manually restart the motd service in /etc/rc.d/motd as in: /etc/rc.d/motd restart and also add an entry to the man page for motd.
