I have the following config in the gettytab:

How can resolve the Problem?

 I assume that you are saying that the contents of /etc/issue are not
 being displayed before the login prompt?

 It works just fine for me. Can you give us more details about the
 problem?

 I presume you are using a telnet or ssh client, or some other protocol
 over the network to log in? No getty(8) is involved in a network
 login, so nothing in gettytab(5) is going to have any effect.
 
 This is not a system bug, so I am going to close up the PR. If you
 need more help with this problem, I suggest you send details of what
 you are currently doing, and what results you are trying to get to
 -questions or another appropriate FreeBSD email list.

State-Changed-Why:  
This is not a bug. No getty(8) is involved in a network login so 
gettytab(5) is not necessarily used. (But in some cases, like 
telnetd(8) which uses a few fields of gettytab(5), there is partial 
support. What I said in that last mail about gettytab(5) not being 
used at all is not absolutely true.)
