Hi,

When the user logs into the system it gives them three chances to get the login correct or it disables the login. It will not say that the login has been disabled until the correct login is entered. I am trying to capture the "login disabled" message on the screen for longer than the present 1 second, but cannot find where to do it. I thought /etc/default/passwd would have bene the obvious place but apparently not!

Please help!

Thanks
Lesley
