Hi list,
   using this page of the gentoo wiki http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Console_Prompt
i'm trying to use the /etc/issue file.

After having enabled the file in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file with

Banner /etc/issue

file i've observed that effectively the system shows the "welcome" string.
However i'm not seeing the effective system name, kernel etc.... but only this:

This is \n.\O (\s \m \r) \t

Password:

it seems that the escape character is not correctly identified.

What i'm doing wrong?

Regards,
MC
