I'd like to suggest looking at the Center for Internet Security's benchmark
documents for various Unix/Linux/Windows platforms. They have a recommended
banner message that is a "consensus" message from various areas of the Net
(Edu, gov, mil, com, org). It's a good starting point and we are using them
here at VA Tech. The CIS www site is http://www.cisecurity.org and the
benchmarks and scanning tools are free.
