List Ubuntu Version

When logging into a system it generally would show you the current version in a MOTD style window. This server had the MOTD changed so I needed to grab the pertinent information.

lsb_release -d
cat /etc/issue

Or on newer systems (16.04 or later)

cat /etc/os-release
hostnamectl
