For FTP server:
To change the greeting banner for vsftpd, add the following directive to the /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file:
| ftpd_banner=<insert_greeting_here> |
Replace <insert_greeting_here> in the above directive with the text of the greeting message.
For mutli-line banners, it is best to use a banner file. To simplify management of multiple banners, place all banners in a new directory called /etc/banners/. The banner file for FTP connections in this example is /etc/banners/ftp.msg. Below is an example of what such a file may look like:
####################################################
# Hello, all activity on ftp.asgaur.com is logged.#
####################################################
