your shell is stored in /etc/passwd as the las field.

However, you can change that value by running the command
chsh
it will ask you for your passwd and then for the full path to the shell

That's odd, I can just type in "csh" or whatever shell I want and bam, it switches. To get back, I just type exit.


That way you are just running a shell. But with chsh you change your default shell, for the next session and forevermore, which is what I think he was asking for, as he said that just typing the commands didnt do what he expected.




Actually, he was asking about switching to csh/tcsh, I didn't see any questions about permanancy, but I could be wrong.
