Comment 8 for bug 543767

@Dustin:

From the server showing the MOTD, I get the following output:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2009-05-09 18:58 /etc/motd -> /var/run/motd
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 168 2010-03-31 19:07 /var/run/motd

/etc/update-motd.d:
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-11-10 06:36 ./
drwxr-xr-x 94 root root 4096 2010-03-31 06:39 ../
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 149 2009-07-14 03:25 00-header*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 54 2009-11-07 14:14 90-updates-available -> /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-updates-available*

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 52 2009-11-07 14:14 99-reboot-required -> /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-reboot-required*

From the server _not_ showing the MOTD (public key) the output looks like this:
ls -alF /var/run/motd /etc/motd /etc/update-motd.d
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2010-02-13 18:51 /etc/motd -> /var/run/motd

/etc/update-motd.d:
