Hi Steve,

I see. So the symlink removal intentional. Then something else must be broken on Trusty as I don't get a motd message on login on a VT or via SSH on a freshly installed machine. Both /run/motd and /run/motd.dynamic are present on Trusty. As soon as I add the symlink /etc/motd -> /run/motd I also get the motd message on login/ssh.

Can it be that there is an issue with pam_motd in Trusty so that /run/motd.dynamic isn't displayed?

Best,

Michael
