CentOS 8 disable Activate the web console message
When login to CentOS 8 using SSH, you get a message asking you to enable web console.
Activate the web console with: systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket
You can uninstall cockpit with command
yum remove cockpit*
If you just need to disable the message, delete the file
rm -f /etc/motd.d/cockpit
This is actually a symlink to file /run/cockpit/motd
See CentOS 8
It doesn’t work. can be removed by “yum remove cockpit-ws”
The cockpit entries are under /etc/motd.d/cockpit and /etc/issue.d/cockpit.issue
motd shows after users login
issue shows before users login
Removing both worked for me
