Here are two scripts that I use on our systems here:
the first one, lpphist, summarizes the output of lslpp listing only the
last entry for a given lpp (presumably the most useful.. ;-).
the second script mkmotd a perl script outputs a simple line using information
from lslpp and lpphist (it assumes that lpphist is in your path):
AIX 1.3 on oztotl (1763000) (bos.obj: 03.01.0002.0015 on 03/18/91 by root)
I put this in /etc/motd -- mostly because I like sun's little banner
that they put there ;-)
If anybody finds these useful, great, if not, oh well ;-)
