It's tons easier (and safer) than this. As root, type this at a Terminal
shell prompt:

    dwrite loginwindow ImageFile </full/path/of/your/tiff>

Then log out and type "exit" at the loginwindow. You might also want
to try this:

    dwrite loginwindow HostName "<name_you_want>"

If name_you_want is "localhost", then the machine's host name, whatever
it may be, gets displyed on the loginwindow

This definitely works under Release 3. Your milage may vary under Release 2.
And yes, it's documented in the Network and Sysadmin manual, page 232.
Now if only someone would write a graphic app that you could drag-and-drop
your loginwindow TIFF into.... (hint, hint)
