Summary: Improve the documentation w.r.t. "the user's shell"
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 5.5p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Documentation
AssignedTo: unassigned-b...@mindrot.org
ReportedBy: vinc...@vinc17.org
The ssh documentation (man pages) uses "the user's shell" with
different meanings.
For sshd, it is IMHO clear that "the user's shell" refers to the shell
specified in /etc/passwd (if there's another way to specify it, this
should be described).
For the local side (for LocalCommand and ProxyCommand), the ssh_config
man page should say that it uses $SHELL if any (else the shell from
/etc/passwd?) and that it assumes that $SHELL uses an absolute
pathname. Moreover SHELL should be listed in the ENVIRONMENT section of
the ssh(1) man page.
