A short shell script that uses Figlet to print the hostname of your Linux box when you log in, as an alternative to hard-coding it into /etc/motd .
Requires Figlet to be installed (it’s available for many distributions via package manager). On Ubuntu, save this as 15-hostname-print then move it to /etc/update-motd.d/ and chmod +x it.
