Is there a way to disable the banner that is displayed when logging in? I am talking about in the shell logon, the banner that has the green lines and displays the IP address etc. The reason is that I use an automation tool called EventGhost which has a plugin to do SSH, but this plugin does not seem to like that banner and it causes that SSH plugin to fail to connect. I have considered cracking open the plugin source code, but if there is a simple way to disable the banner in DietPi that would be the quicker solution. Thanks!!
Hi
You can remove the banner display script with the following command:
rm /DietPi/dietpi/dietpi-banner
Bear in mind, updates to DietPi will replace/renew that script.
You may receive errors (file not found), they can safely be ignored as this script is a display script only (not system critical).
This does not seem to work for me… The banner script just comes back after I delete it.

Did you stop and restart the sshd service? Or reboot?
I rebooted (that’s what I’m trying to do eliminate the clutter at boot)
