Hello,
For the shell use the chsh command to change the shell for the current user, or as root `chsh username` of the user for which the shell must be changed e.g.
chsh user1
The command will prompt you for the default shell which must be set for user1. As for the network configuration (in 13.1 and earlier) there is a switch in yast network settings which determines how the network interfaces are managed. It's in the Global Options Tab in console mode, but must be at the same place in the GUI. By switching to Traditional Method with ifup you can manage the settings for the network interfaces via yast or the files under /etc/sysconfig/network/

I have tried the chsh command with some success. But when I changed root to tcsh I could no longer su into it, nor would yast accept the root passwd. When I changed the root shell back to bash, it all appeared to recover. Any ideas?
Have you tried what happens in a 'bash' root shell, if you use a small group of commands: (presume tcsh is /usr/bin/tcsh) [code] export SHELL=/usr/bin/tcsh; exec /usr/bin/tcsh -l [/code]
If this does not satify you, try ...tcsh -i
If that works for you, edit your "~/.bash_profile" or "~/.bashrc" to end with this commands.
Shrugs, Hack? Yes, but what else is new?

Thanks, I had thought of a similar idea. But I was curious why root will not run under tcsh? I like to understand what is going on. Is this just a suse thing? And what is breaking? I have used tcsh for root in my previous life under Fedora, but don't care for that distribution anymore.
