Nope, you're right. I don't have, and that was the problem. Which is odd, it was zsh, I'm not sure if I installed the port or package and I can't take it off and reinstall it on the machine at the moment, but it might not have updated /etc/shells when it installed then. Although I think it's probably just a case of me being a moron at the wheel again =) Many Thanks, Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
