Changing the shell with chsh

Posted: Wed 23rd Jul 2008@11:07

Every time I ssh into my web server with a new account, I get the default shell, and I dont like it :) So therefore, I change it using:

chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash

which (after logging out and back in again) makes my default shell stay as bash :)

Which is nice - I've only blogged this so I don't have to go back through my bash history to work out how I did it the last time! I also hope it helps someone else out too!
