Please double-check that you are dealing with a devstack installation. You shouldn't have to override the shell if the installation was successful. If your devstack doesn't let you change the user, then check the installation logs to find out what failed.
If you have a fullstack installation, then your shells will be set to /bin/false, since you shouldn't need shell access as those other users. --Ned.
