On my server with SSH, when a user logs in and enters a user name, the response is
user_name@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxÂ’s password:
Is it possible to customize the response after “@”? At the very
least, can it be configured to show
user_name@server_name
I would prefer that the IP address is not in the response.
I have looked at the man pages, but if I missed that section, my
apologies. I did find how to add a banner, but not how to change the
actual query for the password.
I don't think that has anything to do with ssh, but is the system's
password prompt.
for me when logging in with ssh, I just get Password:

After doing some research with your comment in mind because it was a
good thought, I made some interesting discoveries. It turns out that
that ssh is only echoing back what I put in. If I use "ssh -l username xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" to login on anther server, I received "username@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx's password:". On the other hand, if I used
"ssh -l username hostname", I received "username@hostame's password:"
It also appears to be true if I use Putty from a Windows PC
That is fine with me, so I guess I am all set. I was only concerned
that my server was revealing information to the outside world about my internal network. Thanks for your help.
As I said, I get
Password:
nomatter what I enter on the ssh line
You do not say what operating system you are using. Windows, Mac,
Linux,.... on the two machines.
