Hi, When I used vipw to change the login shell to /usr/local/bin/bash (which is listed in /etc/shells, and was built from ports), subsequent ssh login attempts fail (password rejected). If I change the shell back to /bin/sh or /bin/csh then login works again. If I instead use webmin Users and Groups to set the login shell to bash (or any other shell), everything is fine. There is a delay of quite a few seconds for the webmin Save operation to complete, whereas after ZZ the vipw completes without any perceptible delay. This is with 7.0-RELEASE (Generic) on i386. Ports were updated sometime last week. Any thoughts much appreciated. -Kurt
