I have a freeBSD 11.1 box and it is configured to have password based authentication over SSH. I am wondering if it is possible to some kind of customized message if the user being authenticated is not available locally ( like no entry in /etc/passwd )?

How to get a customized message that if user being authenticated doesn't exist in freeBSD?

FreeBSD is a free Unix-like operating system that is a direct descendant of BSD. FreeBSD contains a significant collection of server-related software in the base system and the ports collection, it is possible to configure and use FreeBSD as a mail server, web server, Firewall, FTP server, DNS server and a router, among other applications. Although FreeBSD does not install the X Window System by default, it is available in the FreeBSD ports collection. A number of Desktop environments such as GNOME, KDE and Xfce, and lightweight window managers such as Openbox, Fluxbox and dwm are also available to FreeBSD.
