Set the "motdfile" cvar to the file you want to show.

If you're using the default motd file with ULX, you should set it to "ulx_motd.txt".

Why not just disable it if you don't know what to put in it?

Using the config file in server_gmod/data/ulx or using the XGUI menu as described above;
"motdfile" "http://url"

Really.
Cvar's are are server 101.
ULX or no ULX, it shouldn't take this long to explain.

Tell us exactly what you did and why it "doesn't work".
