The full path to all valid shells on the system must exist in /etc/shells. Just add /usr/local/bin/bash or whatever the path is to the /etc/shells file. After the user is already created you'll want to use vipw to edit the password and change the default shell. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Alex Kwan [SMTP:alexkwan@pacific.net.hk] > Sent: Sunday, August 22, 1999 9:45 AM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: re: set bash as user's default shell > > Hi! > > When I add a new user to my FreeBSD system, > the adduser program only let me choice the > default shell as "csh or sh", how can I set > it as bash? > > Thanks! > > Alex > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
