Here is the terminal session and how to for changing the message that appears to all users before they login to the system. Even easier than this is Kevin Toppenberg's GUI-Config which I highly recommend, just go to Advanced and edit the KERNEL SYSTEM PARAMETERS file Intro Message field.

Below, VISTA.ICH.LOCAL is the name of our local install, you would have to put in your local installation name instead of that. Also, this is the first time I've used the full-screen editor. A little trick: you may have to change Putty keyboard settings to VT100 emulation in order to save your work. Also a little gotcha is that one must press the F1 key and then h (help) or F1 key and then e (saves and exits) but not F1 and h or e at the same time, or just F1 by itself or nothing will happen and you phone Dave 3 times and he is baffled. Then you remember DEC stuff from the 80's and bringing the campus computer system to its knees compiling ADA on a Vax and...well anyway here it is:

I have gotten stuck in that built-in VistA enough times, that my goal is to never go into it again. I can never remember the magic sequence of keys to get it to exit.

I set up an external editor, so I can use a linux-based editor. My favorite is JOE, but it also works with vi or nano.

Let me know if you need the code.

There is an option under EVE>Operations Mangement that lets you edit the Intro text.

To get out of the editor, when you don't have PF1 mapped correctly: Ctrl-E to Quit Esc,O,P then the key (Q to quit; E to save and quit Ctrl-[,O,P then the key.

Can you share how you set-up an external editor?

First, create an entry in the ALTERNATE EDITOR file. Here is a dump of one such record. I have setup a function EDIT^TMGEDIT that will accept a parameter of which external editor I want (see more below)

The referenced routines WP2HFS and HFS2WP are routines that load in and save out WP arrays to the host file system. And DelFile does what you would think. Let me know if you need these.

Also, I have put a zip file with all the files in my TMG library up on the Google Groups section with downloads for our Hardhats group.

Let me know if it doesn't work.
