DOD Banner on SMA/WSA login screen

Since the new splash screen on the login page the login banner appears to be limited to two lines.   Does anyone know a work around for this?
The official DOD banner is:
You are accessing a U.S. Government (USG) Information System (IS) that is provided for USG-authorized use only. By using this IS (which includes any device attached to this IS), you consent to the
following conditions:
-The USG routinely intercepts and monitors communications on this IS for purposes including, but not limited to, penetration testing, COMSEC monitoring, network operations and defense, personnel misconduct (PM), law enforcement (LE), and counterintelligence (CI) investigations.
-At any time, the USG may inspect and seize data stored on this IS.
-Communications using, or data stored on, this IS are not private, are subject to routine monitoring, interception, and search, and may be disclosed or used for any USG authorized purpose.
-This IS includes security measures (e.g., authentication and access controls) to protect USG interests--not for your personal benefit or privacy.
-Notwithstanding the above, using this IS does not constitute consent to PM, LE or CI investigative searching or monitoring of the content of privileged communications, or work product, related to personal representation or services by attorneys, psychotherapists, or clergy, and their assistants. Such communications and work product are private and confidential. See User Agreement for details.

Back up all data before proceeding.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
If you want no text in the login window, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
sudo defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist LoginwindowText
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting. You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Confirm. You don't need to post the warning.
If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal.
If you want text, enter the command below in the same way. Replace "YourMessageHere" with whatever you want the screen to show.
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist LoginwindowText YourMessageHere

  • Creating a warning banner at the login screen in solaris 10 GNOME

    Does anyone know how to create a a warning banner at the login screen in solaris 10 GNOME so users have to hit OK or Enter before typing in their username?
    A million thanks,
    Johnny Mac

    I have had problems after the 10.5.2 update. I ended up with a frozen computer - unable to restart or shut down etc. Also ended up at one stage with Set Up Assistant screen. With the help of a computer savvy friend, at least I am able to use my computer again.
    It appears the actual download did happen but it did not install and the computer tells me I need to "re-start". When I did this, window appeared on plain blue screen saying it was installing software but absolutely nothing happened - no blue scrolling bar etc.
    My iMac computer is still under Apple Care Plan and technician told me they are many problems surfacing across the various machines with this upgrade. He has asked me to delay updating the software and to ring back in a couple of days because their technicians are currently working on the problem and he hopes for an answer soon.

  • Profile Manager Login Screen message limit?

    I'm trying to use profile manager to set a login screen message.  Our message has 360 characters including spaces. The profile manager web page crashed every time I try to save it.  If I halve the length of the message it will save and apply.  The online documentation I have looked at,http://help.apple.com/profilemanager/mac/2.2/#apd2A822B29-31B2-4DA7-9E3A-6E68DE5 4F5DE doesn't state a maximum character length for the message; is there one? and what is it?
    Thanks,
    Rebecca

    I would reccomend the use of a Login banner if you have that much content.

  • CiscoWorks Login Screen

    Using LMS 3.0.1. Is there anyway to customize the initial login screen? We would like to put a banner on it similar to what is displayed when logging into a switch. Thank you.

    an undocumented feature of LMS might help you in this case. I found it while digging in the filesystem of NMSROOT.
    make a backup of the following file then open it in a text editor:
    NMSROOT\lib\classpath\cscommon.properties
    enter the message between the double quotes of the parameter CUSTOM_LOGIN_MESSAGE. It should looks like this:
    CUSTOM_LOGIN_MESSAGE="your message for everyone who login to LMS"
    Save the file and be careful that you DO NOT CHANGE the file extension!
    No reboot required.
    Now, everyone that successfully login to LMS gets a pop-up with this message.

  • When I boot up it hangs on the login screen for awhile, why?

    I have a mid 2011 Macbook Air 13".  It came with Lion but I recently updated to Mountain Lion.  When I wake the laptop from sleep everything is fine.  If it's been awhile since it slept (a couple of hours), the login screen hangs.  What happens is that it boots like normal and looks like everything is correct, but it won't let me type in my password.  After 10 seconds or so I can see a cursor come up but it won't let me type (but anything I do type at this point will later fill in the field after another 2-3 seconds or so).  One other thing that's weird is that when the screen first comes up it shows the battery percentage from when I put it back on the charger, then after everything catches up, it changes to show 100%.
    I hope I explained the problem well enough.  Basicly a "wake from sleep" is fine if it hasn't been long since the laptop slept, but if it's been awhile it takes about 15-20 seconds to boot up.
    Ideas?

    Here are some suggestions based on my recent issue with unable to get Mavericks up after upgrade - The Apple geniuses just simply couldnt figure this one out...despite it being in their shop for 3 days (They probably did not look at it...and asked if they can just wipe out everything and install fresh...i had said NO):
    Restart computer and hold Cmd+V when you hear chime. This will start the computer in Verbose mode.
    See the messages and see where the system boot fails. In my case, it was some backtrace IOStorageFamily issue with com.paragon-software.
    Google may be able to solve your Apple issues - just type the error message in and see if you get any useful suggestions. in most cases - this would be some faulty 3rd party drivers.....
    In my case, it was something stupid i had probably installed....I had to boot to safe mode (Hold Shift at boot chime) - open Terminal, delete the folder com.paragon-software.kext from System/Library/Extensions....that fixed the problem. Mavericks is working great now....
    Let me know if your debugging thing works...

  • How can I get an Active Direcotry account to show at login screen

    I've just Binded a computer to our Active Directory network, and when I log off, I only see the local account listed at the login screen, and it takes 5-10 seconds before the arrow comes up that lets me choose Other.
    I  want to be able to list the Active Directory account that the user should login with, is there a way to make it stick at the login screen?

    You can add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.

  • How to pop up a login screen when using menu?

    I have created a Menu. Now I want to create a login form, means login form will be the first form where there will be a button of log in. As soon as an user click that button a login screen should be popped up. Then user will enter the login id and password and then he is connected. Now he/she can access to other forms in the menu. Could you please tell me how to do that?

    You can start a form without login in by putting "null;" in the on-logon trigger and the put logon in the menu that you want the user to select to login.
    Search this forum for the login code. It has some finer points when it comes to exception handling that are not obvious.

  • How to enable login screen which doesn't require a password

    I'm setting up an image for a computer lab. The computers that are currently in this lab auto login. However, in the off case that a student accidentally (or maybe purposefully) locks the computer, we want them to be able to simply click the user account
    picture and it logs in without asking for a password. The current Windows 7 PCs in this lab work that way, but whoever set them up can't remember how this was accomplished and I can't figure out for the life of me how to get it done. Currently, if I lock the
    PC, it just brings me to the login screen with a blank username & blank password field.
    These machines are not on the domain. Does anyone have any idea how to get this behavior out of the login screen?

    BYPASS LOGIN
    Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type netplwiz and press Enter. Remove the tick from “Users must enter a user name and password” > OK. You may have to type the user account name/password just the once to complete the process.
    BYPASS ENTERING A PASSWORD AFTER WAKEUP
    To bypass entering a password after hibernation, go to Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Power Options > Require a password on wakeup (in the left pane) and put a check mark in Don’t require a password.

  • Can we have two login screens for a particular application?

    I have an application which is sso enabled.
    Can i have another login screen, which doesnt authenticate SSO?

    I a nutshell, Yes you can have multiple login pages for one application. All you will need to do is specify which one you want to go to when you create the link to the application.
    E.g If you have an application number of 54321 and within this application you have 2 login pages number 101 and 111. You will need to use the following urls to access each one:
    http://server_name:port/pls/htmldb/f?p=54321:101
    http://server_name:port/pls/htmldb/f?p=54321:111
    I do not know about how SSO works with ApEx as I have never used it. But you can definitly have 2 separate login pages.
    Hope this helps,

    I found an answer to this on another page (I was having the same problem) This worked for me:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.

    all is fine in osx apple wireless mouse keyboard magicpad ok

    have connected logitech mouse keyboard still nothing.
    please help!
    thanks in advance

    1. I have tried copying the Keyboard/Trackpad/Mouse drivers to the $WinPEDriver$ directory with mixed success on a 2012 MBP.
    2. My experience is based on a 2013 rMBP. You may be able to use an Apple USB Keypad/Mouse to better success.
    3. See http://www.macworld.com/article/2460820/macbook-pro-mid-2014-review-minor-update -offers-slightly-better-cpu-performance.html for HW differences between the two machines.
    4. If you have access to a 2013 rMBP, I can suggest trying to build the USB on that and working with the USB to see if you can make it install Windows. the rMBP 2014 and rMBP 2013 have the same HW, except some CPU changes. You can also try building the USB at the nearest Apple store, if possible.
    5. There is a section in AutoUnattend.xml, which is supposed to install all drivers in $WinPEDriver$ (see this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2686316 )

  • Macbook air with 10.10.1 keyboard and touchpad stop responding after login screen

    Keyboard and touchpad works only at login screen.
    I have tried all the PRAM and SMC. reset stuff.
    Safe mode, repair etc. Creating another account is not helped either.
    I am also using 10.10.1 with macbook air.
    I have also called the apple tech support and no results!
    And this is obviously a software bug from so called robust yosemite!
    Same here!
    Macbook air built-in keyboard/trackpad only work at login screen

      You may have to take the computer to the Apple store to have it checked out.

  • My Mac starts up fine in safe mode, but freezes before the login screen in normal mode.

    I have the 2012 MBP, 4 GB of RAM, 500GB HD, 2.5GHz Intel i5 processor.  Everything worked fine, until one day it freezes all of a sudden.  I shut down and restarted.  The Apple logo appears with the loading animation underneath.  A few moments later, the animation disappears, and the mouse cursor appears.  This is normal.  What's not normal is that it stays on this screen forever.  I can't get to the login screen even after waiting sooo long.  Even restarting 5 times only repeats this problem.  I finally boot into safe mode.  I am able to login and get to the desktop in safe mode, but not normal mode.  Clearing every startup item in System Prefs, and in the startupitems folders does not solve the problem.  Disk utility says no problems.  Resetting PRAM does nothing.  Can anyone please tell me what I should do next?

    Do you hear the startup chimes?
    If so, then the startup disk may need repairing ...
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
    Make sure to back up all important files first before using OS X Recovery.
    OS X Recovery does require a broadband high speed internet connection.

  • Macbook air built-in keyboard/trackpad only work at login screen

    The built-in keyboard and trackpad have become unresponsive on my 2013 refurbished macbook air. When I restart it, everything works normally at the login screen, but becomes unresponsive again once I've logged in. The computer works fine with external inputs or a shared screen.
    I've recently updated to yosemite. The fact that everything works up until login makes me think this is a software problem. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps listed here, and I've reset PRAM and SMC. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

    Hi,
    I was able to get result from apple store after 24 days not hours days. They said it's my fault and they have found liquid inside of it and when i asked to see pictures of it they asked for COURT ORDER and repair will be cost around 400$.
    I am %100 sure that my macbook air never touched with liquids.
    I was using it for business and not even fluids there isn't any one scratch on it. I have been very careful.
    Did they asked 400$ for you too ?
    I am also using mac mini and iphone 5s. I think i will never buy an apple again.
    And i will definetly go to court.

  • Mid-2010 Macbook Pro Randomly goes back to login screen?

    My mid-2010 MBP will randomly log me out.  I'll be on the internet or working on a paper and it will go to the blue screen that occurs when you're booting up the computer and then to my login screen, where I have to type in my username and password again.  Anyone else experiencing this?
