Create a file called /etc/shells containing this list:
/bin/bash
/bin/csh
/bin/jsh
/bin/ksh
/bin/ksh93
/bin/pfcsh
/bin/pfksh
/bin/pfsh
/bin/sh
/bin/tcsh
/bin/zsh
/sbin/jsh
/sbin/pfsh
/sbin/sh
/usr/bin/bash
/usr/bin/csh
/usr/bin/jsh
/usr/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/ksh93
/usr/bin/pfcsh
/usr/bin/pfksh
/usr/bin/pfsh
/usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/zsh
/usr/sfw/bin/zsh
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh

That will solve your issue.
