Welcome Banner

[Sleepy46]

Hi
I have created a Nightscout instance in Proxmox.
Now I would also like to have a login screen like the helper.
How can I create that?
I can also take an existing screen from an LXC container, but I don't know where the code is.

[tremor021]

/etc/motd

[tremor021]

which container is that?

[Sleepy46]

Calibre, sabnzbd , paperless

[tremor021]

/etc/profile.d/00_lxc-details.sh

[Sleepy46]

thanks thats it

but why does the file not exist in calibre and there is still a message

[tremor021]

what do you mean its not there?

[Sleepy46]

Welcome Message but no file

If anyone add the Welcome-Banner to old installations or anything else:

1.) Create an new File:

nano set_motd.sh

2.) add following lines:

#!/bin/bash

# Function to set MOTD
set_motd() {
  # Define colors and icons
  YW=$(echo "\033[33m")
  GN=$(echo "\033[1;92m")
  CL=$(echo "\033[m")
  TAB="  "

  GATEWAY="${TAB}🌐${TAB}${CL}"
  OS="${TAB}🖥️${TAB}${CL}"
  HOSTNAME="${TAB}🏠${TAB}${CL}"
  INFO="${TAB}💡${TAB}${CL}"

  # Get OS information
  if [ -f "/etc/os-release" ]; then
    OS_NAME=$(grep ^NAME /etc/os-release | cut -d= -f2 | tr -d '"')
    OS_VERSION=$(grep ^VERSION_ID /etc/os-release | cut -d= -f2 | tr -d '"')
  elif [ -f "/etc/debian_version" ]; then
    OS_NAME="Debian"
    OS_VERSION=$(cat /etc/debian_version)
  fi

  # Set MOTD file
  PROFILE_FILE="/etc/profile.d/00_motd.sh"
  echo "echo -e \"\"" >"$PROFILE_FILE"
  echo -e "echo -e \"${TAB}${GATEWAY}${YW} Provided by: ${GN}community-scripts ORG ${YW}| GitHub: ${GN}https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE${CL}\"" >>"$PROFILE_FILE"
  echo "echo \"\"" >>"$PROFILE_FILE"
  echo -e "echo -e \"${TAB}${OS}${YW} OS: ${GN}${OS_NAME} - Version: ${OS_VERSION}${CL}\"" >>"$PROFILE_FILE"
  echo -e "echo -e \"${TAB}${HOSTNAME}${YW} Hostname: ${GN}\$(hostname)${CL}\"" >>"$PROFILE_FILE"
  echo -e "echo -e \"${TAB}${INFO}${YW} IP Address: ${GN}\$(hostname -I | awk '{print \$1}')${CL}\"" >>"$PROFILE_FILE"

  # Disable default MOTD scripts
  chmod -x /etc/update-motd.d/*

  echo -e "${GN}MOTD has been successfully set.${CL}"
}

# Execute the function
set_motd

3.) Set executable rights for MOTD

chmod +x set_motd.sh

4.) execute the script

./set_motd.sh
