Hello,
I have a user who doesn't get the normal bash prompt when he logs in, just
a
simple 'sh' prompt, for example;
server Fri Aug 24 09:15:00 ~ $ <snip>
Is the user's info in /etc/passwd correct?
~~~ It appears that it is since he is able to login to the server. I actually did update it again since I deleted his original account and set it up a new account with his usual username & password. The info in /etc/passwd appear correct.
By 'correct', I think he's specifically asking which shell, if any, is shown in field 7 ~~~~~ Specifically, :/bin/bash It is odd. Regards, ~James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It is a strange state of affairs, to be sure. Did you say he has the exact same .bashrc and .bash_login/.bash_profile as everybody else? Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You may want to check his ~/.profile also - it turns out that is read after .bashrc and a prompt could be set in that file. Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
