on the system or network configuration, as described in the man
page.

发帖数: 1568 | 8 Until you undertand why passwd changes not only your password,
but also your login shell, and why you have to use "kill" to send
any innocent signals to one of your precious processes, you can not
say you understand what is so called ....
The UNIX philosophy
hehe.

发帖数: 7 | 9 Not MildSeven's fault. I use the same Solaris network and "passwd -e" doesn't
work here. It turns out we have to use a special user account management
interface to change the shell.

发帖数: 1568 | 10 You see, this is yet another "feature" of UNIX: you never get bored
when you migrate from one UNIX to another .... Be prepared to be
surprised, hehe.

发帖数: 108 | 11 haha, in IRIX there's a User Manager. it requires root, but then root
can edit /etc/passwd directly.
Not sure how a normal user could change his/her default shell...

发帖数: 1568 | 12 Actually, there is a hack, suppose you don't need X stuff, then
put this line in your .login, or .cshrc, or whatever file that
your default shell loads whenever you login:
if ( -f /bin/bash ) exec /bin/bash --login
If you do want to use X from time to time, you need a bit more
trick. I am not an expert on that, but this line in my .bash_profile
may help you:
if [ -z "$DISPLAY" ] && [ $(tty) == /dev/vc/1 ]; then
startx
fi
Of course, that was meant to automate startx not /bin/bash, but
the idea

发帖数: 1879 | 13 Never ever modify password file directly. Before you knew it, you could
have screwed up the system.
There are other things user could try, like 'chsh', 'ypchsh' etc. At
least, asking system admin is always an option.
