Here is a nice way to spice up your SSH logins.
To create a cool ASCII art banner for your server, first start off by going here:
http://www.network-science.de/ascii/
Type your server name into the text field. On the font choice, select “_all fonts with your text_”. Click OK to generate the ASCII art. Copy the one you like into the clipboard.
On your server, paste this into the file /etc/banner
Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change the “Banner” directive to “Banner /etc/banner”
Restart SSH
Very cool. How do you get backslashes to display though??
