Look in /etc/gettytab (I know its ugly)
The command is im..the default line looks something like this:
       :cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=3D\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:
If you wanted to pretend you run Solaris 7 for instance you could make it
look like this:
        :cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=3D\r\n\r\nSunOS 5.7\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:

man 5 gettytab is a nice reference for the ugliness of it all.

I believe the fields in im=3D\r\n%s/%m (%h) (%t) translate to:
%s=3DSystem    IE FreeBSD
%m=3DMachine   IE i386
%h=3Dhostname  IE my.machine.lan
%t=3Dtty       IE ttyv0
