In the file /etc/syslog.conf.

Change the line

Subject: How to write to console
Date: Fri, 4 Apr 2003 08:29:19 -0600

Hello,

I'd like to write to the "default" console of a -STABLE box.  In this
case, no one is logged in on that console/terminal.

The commands write, talk, and wall mention writing to a terminal of a
logged in user.  Ideally, I'd like to clear the screen and display an
80x25 message.

Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?

Doug
