Here's the message that I get every time:
Linux aspx-desktop 2.6.15-28-386 #1 PREEMPT Tue Mar 13 20:49:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
The programs included with the Ubuntu system are free software;
the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the
individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

applicable law.

Changing this message requires editing two different files. The first three sections can be modified by editing the following file:
/etc/motd
This file contains the linux build number as well as the Ubuntu warranty message. I don't find this particularly useful, so I removed all of it and replaced it with my own message.
To disable the last login message (which I don't recommend doing), you will need to edit the following file in sudo mode:
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
Find this line in the file and change the yes to no as shown:
PrintLastLog no
Now when you login, you'll get a blank prompt, although I wouldn't necessarily recommend it because it's useful to see the last login to the system for security reasons. This is my prompt now:
Linux aspx-desktop 2.6.15-28-386 #1 PREEMPT Tue Mar 13 20:49:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
