Or, to avoid renaming the binary, you could put in /etc/profile
function ssh() {
read -p "Username:" SSH_LOGIN
/usr/bin/ssh -l $SSH_LOGIN $*
}
Of course, you'd have to make sure your ssh binary actually lives in /usr/bin.
Then users would be free to undefine the ssh function if they don't like that
behaviour.

Under Unix system the openssh client use when it is not

the command line the local user login by default, if you
want to have

Hello,
I am testing openssh on a Sun Solaris 8 workstation. The ssh and
support packages were obtained from Sunfreeware.com.
I wish to login to our Cisco components which are using ssh and
tacacs+ with the Cisco ACS server.
When I login from a Windows PC with Putty, I am promted
for my user
name, and then I can enter my password.
With the Sun workstaion I have to enter " ssh -l user-name
IP-address" to login. As different users will use this Sun
workstation, it is important that the user is promted for the user
name. How can we achieve this?
Thanks
