---id: RHEL-07-010030 status: implemented tag: graphical ---

The tasks in the security role configure dconf to display a login banner each time a graphical session starts on the system. The default banner message set by the role is:

You are accessing a secured system and your actions will be logged along with identifying information. Disconnect immediately if you are not an authorized user of this system.

Deployers can customize this message by setting an Ansible variable:

security_enable_graphical_login_message_text: >
    This is a customized banner message.

Warning

The dconf configuration does not support multi-line strings. Ensure that security_enable_graphical_login_message_text contains a single line of text.

In addition, deployers can opt out of displaying a login banner message by changing security_enable_graphical_login_message to no.
