Hold on committing this until I've gotten fesco approval. 
I'll make a note which fesco ticket it is once I have created it

Thanks

I don't care either way about the hostname being added, but adding the current time is odd. Realize that the login prompt may sit there on a tty for hours or days without any users logging in. So the time would only be confusing when a user finally sits down in front of the console.

Removing today's date from previous patch

Lol had not noticed that thanks. 

Here's a patch that removes it and I will be updating the fesco ticket accordingly.
