I installed csh shell from apt-get install it installed ok however when added to /etc/passwd as a user login shell the system responds with "no shell"
I checked the /etc/shells file and it is there as /bin/csh and /usr/bin/csh why in the world is this shell linked from /bin/bsd-csh to /etc/alternatives/csh which is linked back to /bin/csh?? The reason to use this shell is that on our hp-ux box we use .cshrc which needs /usr/bin/csh. I tried changing the /etc/passwd from /usr/bin/csh ( hp-ux ) to /bin/csh ( Debian linux ). Still "no shell" is the login response. What am I missing here. Meatime I am changing all the scripts to run under bash, but this task is a real pain. and may not be possible as some scripts require rexec calls to systems using csh on hp-ux. phil -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
