Hey,

 

I have recently installed Turnkey Domain controller to run in my network. I would like to set up the MOTD on ssh login to show more then just the free space on "/". I cannot figure out how to change it. I have tried adding a line to the file /usr/bin/turnkey-sysinfo but it will only replace the disk usage and not add another one to it.

 

Any help would be great.

But Debian has a wiki page on it (TKL v12.x is based on Debian 6/Squeeze).

Hey,

 

Its the turnkey-sysinfo that i am having issues, the MOTD pulls info from that file, and I cannot seem to figure it out.

Ok so I added a separate data volume to separate file shares from system volume, and I also wanted to know disk space of the volume supporting the file shares on login.

Here's what my current MOTD looks like:

Linux smbserver 2.6.32-45-generic-pae #102-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 2 22:10:16 UTC 2013 i686 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Welcome to Smbserver, TurnKey Linux 11.1 / Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid LTS

  System information (as of Wed Apr 03 05:21:18 2013)

    System load:  0.00                     Memory usage:  32%
    Processes:    111                      Swap usage:    2%
    Usage of /:   45.1% of 16.73GB         IP address for eth0:  192.168.x.x
    Usage of /data/:   95.0% of 125.89GB

I edited the file with vi /usr/lib/turnkey-sysinfo/turnkey-sysinfo.py

Use pico if vi confuses you.

Under def_main(): I added a new disk.usage variable (disk_usage1) right after the first one referencing where I mounted the second disk,

disk_usage = "Usage of /: " + disk.usage("/")
disk_usage1 = "Usage of /data/: " + disk.usage("/srv/storage/data")

 

then added a "row" with rows.append((disk_usage1,'')) in front of the print statements which pull everything together. 

    for nic in nics[1:]:
        rows.append(('', nic))
    rows.append((disk_usage1,'')) 

 

 Hope this helps.

 

Best regards,

Jeff
