I was also annoyed by this. Furthermore, any update of Perfsonar seems
to recreate /root/.bashrc with that message.

Any way to influence that behaviour permanently? "add a user to the
pssudo group" does not seem to work:

[root@perfson1
 ~]# id root
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=10(wheel),714(pssudo),0(root)
[root@perfson1
 ~]# /opt/perfsonar_ps/toolkit/scripts/add_pssudo_user --auto
There isn't a perfSONAR sudo user defined. It is recommended that you create 
a sudo user and disable SSH root login. 
WARNING: Be sure you remember the username and password you create with this 
script as root will no longer be able to login via SSH once this command 
completes. If you are using SSH as root now, your session should continue 
until you logout.
Would you like to create a sudo user and disable root SSH? [yes]

Thanks,
Andreas
