I got rid of /etc/issue and that doesn't show up any more, but it appears that the "System name:" deal is compiled into /etc/getty. I suppose this means I need to either (a) live with it, or (b) get a new getty... right? Mail would be good on this one ;->, thanks, Eric -- "I'd rather be no one than someone with no one to love" | Eric Thompson --Stone Roses | et@ocf.berkeley.edu
