Comment 11 for bug 805423

I have no such thing – my users are 'local'.

It's a stock 10.04.4, this is how it looks like right now:

    till@statsd1:~$ ls -lah /etc/update-motd.d/
    total 48K

Note: I removed landscape-client (which in turn removes the offending script from that directory) and the issues are gone.

@Andreas: Did you check out my askubuntu link (http://askubuntu.com/a/162373/11244)? It has process list and all that. It def. stalls at the sysinfo script and it seems like the call to "who" broke.
