+ | # motd |
+ | |
+ | [manpage](https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?motd) |
+ | |
+ | I takes more than just modifying `/etc/motd` on a freebsd system now to modify the motd. |
+ | You need to modify the template file then restart the service. During system startup, the kernel |
+ | version is prepended to `/etc/motd.template` and then written to `/var/run/motd`. |
+ | |
+ | #### Update the motd |
+ | * edit `/etc/motd.template` |
+ | |
+ | #### restart the motd service |
+ | service motd restart |
