In depth
A closer look at Xlogin
This program was written to do some stuff, which is no longer done, when using Xdm from X Windows Version 11 (and not using sessreg). It handles /etc/motd, /etc/nologin, user quotas (EPROCLIM, EUSERS), /var/log/lastlog, /var/run/wtmp, /var/run/utmp and $USER/.hushlogin. You can even specify more than one "MOTD" file, using the -sysFiles commandline option.
