How to Insert Newline Into 3com RAS 1500 Message?

Mar 09, 2005 0 Replies

I'm setting up a 3com RAS 1500 remore access server and need to configure a custom initial welcome message and login prompt. There are special codes like $date, $hostname, $port, etc., for inserting those values into the message text, but I can't find any mention of how to insert a newline, even one at the end of the message. The result is that the welcome message and prompt all run together.



The factory default message does include a newline at the end, so it is obviously possible for the system to have one stored as part of the field, but I can't figure out how to get it in there.



Anyone know the secret? Seems like you'd always want to do this, and surely I can't be the first person ever to set custom welcome messages and prompts.
