How to display IP of ssh user in message?

Probably won't matter, as most of them are scripts...

My message might have been a bit confusing.  When a user logs in via 
ssh, a message can be displayed.  I forget what file this is in.  I want 
to add their IP address to the message so they know that we know where 
they are coming from...

This data shows up in one of the other logs - not sure which off the top 
of my head, tho.

Hi all, 

I notice in our logs that we get a large amount of failed attempts to 
log in.  Short of blocking these domains using iptables, I was wondering 

if there is a way to display the IP address of the user logging in, in a 

message so they know we have their IP address?
