the lsh info page mentions a 'quiet' option: `-q' Quiet mode. Disables all messages and all questions, except password prompts and fatal internal errors.
I tested it with 'lsh -q hostname' and I get no password prompt. Without -q I get the password prompt.
Sounds like a bug. For the record, which version are you using?
With greeting message I mean a message before the password prompt. E.g.: lsh: Some Message??etc?Password for NAME:
BTW, lsh displays the message, but doesn't print the '\n' (and probably '\t') characters. It relaces them with '?'.
lsh filters out control characters from the server messages, because they might mess up your terminal. But it's overly paranoid to filter out \n and \t. So this is another bug.
Thanks for the bug report, /Niels
