Package: scponly Version: 4.6-1 There are at least two reasons for this: - you don't want users to be able to change their restricted shell, and the way to make chsh prevent it is to NOT have the shell in /etc/shells. Otherwise the restricted user can have its shell changed by another (non-restricted) user using a clever combination of su options and chsh. - a non-resticted user may accidentally lock himself out of the system by changing to a restricted shell by mistake. See the NOTE in chsh(1).
