That will work OK for telnet (if enabled) and for console login, but to
enable SSH access you need to do:
# chsh -s /bin/bash user
Ideally this should be done via a web form - you could, for instance,
enable shell access for members of a particular group, or you could have a
"shell" property for each user.
It's not something e-smith plans to do at the moment.
