### MOTD
**Using Ansible**
You can use this Ansible role to install this MOTD : [https://github.com/claranet/ansible-role-motd](https://github.com/claranet/ansible-role-motd)
It do a low level installation so it is compatible with _all_ Linux distros
**Manual**
> It is compatible with [update-motd](https://launchpad.net/update-motd) used by Ubuntu.
```bash
mkdir /etc/update-motd.d
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/claranet/motd/master/scripts/00-basic -o /etc/update-motd.d/00-basic
chmod +x /etc/update-motd.d/00-basic
```For not compatible distributions you will have to add the following line to `/etc/pam.d/sshd` and `/etc/pam.d/login`:
```
session optional pam_exec.so stdout /etc/update-motd.d/00-basic
```You could also want to disable the "last login" information by configuring `PrintLastLog` to `no` in `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`.
