How do i customise my login screen.

[standias]

I would like to display message on my SPLUNK login screen at top right or bottom right. Have done setting :

http://www.splunk.com/base/Documentation/latest/Developer/CustomizeLogin

Example

Add the following key to the [settings] stanza in web.conf in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/:

login_content = This is a production server. If you are running some expensive searches, try one of the following servers: < a href="http://server1:8000">server1 or < a href="http://server2:8080">server2

But this does not work for 4.0.9 (was mentioned applicable 4.1 onwards).

Any ideas without changing the login page : $SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/templates/account/login.html

I'm afraid that the only way to do it back before 4.1 was to change the login.html template itself. And the file has a lot of moving parts (like update checker, banner, etc) which can make it nontrivial to make changes.

And of course any changes you do succeed in making will get blown away on any upgrades or reinstalls.
