Hi SSH developer community I am using CVS over SSH (and SSH in other cases too) and in a certain context it is very annoying to get the SSH banner displayed all the time when using e.g. CVS. Is there a way to set negative verbosity or to otherwise quell the banner information in SSH (or, worse, in CVS). I have tried ssh -q but that does _not_ quell the banner.

What version are you using? -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key 8FF4FA69 / D9A3 86E9 7EEE AF4B B2D4 37C9 C982 80C7 8FF4 FA69 Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience usually comes from bad judgement.

In the configurations I use there are no ssh banners. Are you referring to the /etc/motd?> Is there a way to set negative verbosity or to otherwise quell the > banner information in SSH (or, worse, in CVS).

Are you sure this is not something in your shell environment file? Such as in your .bashrc? The following should produce no output. ssh host.example.com true Bob
