How is this turned off?

/etc/rc.local look for 2 motd lines

/etc/motd appears empty or contains at most one non-printing character.

   # ll /etc/motd
     -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1 Oct  6 15:05 /etc/motd  
   # cat /etc/motd

/etc/rc.local contains two similar line alright. But they appear to be calls to amportal. I am not sure why these need to be in a script called by every login but they are there:

# cat /etc/rc.local
#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
# Make sure asterisk starts on boot
/usr/local/sbin/amportal start
/etc/pbx_first_boot.sh
# Make sure asterisk starts on boot
/usr/local/sbin/amportal start

However, even if I comment out the entire /etc/rc.local file I still get the double ASCII art banner. Which is something I would rather just go away entirely to be honest but I will settle for getting rid of the duplicate.

Got it!

/etc/profile

> unset pathmunge
> /usr/local/sbin/MOTD.py
> /usr/local/sbin/MOTD.py

Bye Bye Banner.
