Hi, I'm trying to get my shell changed from the default csh to bash. I followed the instruction in the handbook, "chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash beni" and got the reply that the user information was updated :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/beni> chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash beni chsh: user information updated [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/beni> Did the same for root. Looked with vipw and my shell was changed to bash. My /etc/shells was also modified : [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cat /etc/shells # $FreeBSD: src/etc/shells,v 1.5 2000/04/27 21:58:46 ache Exp $ # # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/tcsh /usr/local/bin/bash [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> But when logging out and back in again, the shell didn't change to bash. It's still csh... I just get the "%"-sign and have to type "bash" to get the bash-shell in a console. And the weird thing is with path : %echo $path /sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin /usr/bin /usr/X11R6/bin /home/beni/bin % [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> echo $path [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> Any hints on the why of this ? -- Beni.
