the command "chsh" will open vi on your profile file thing (to use the technical term) where you can change the shell... if you just want to run bash once or twice, just type "bash" on the command line... you might also want to try "tcsh" as a replacement for csh, I've heard say changing root's shell to bash is a bad thing (but have done it myself anyway). ----- Original Message ----- From: <Smc659@aol.com> To: <newbies@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Thursday, September 16, 1999 11:04 PM Subject: Changing shell > Does anyone know how to change the root shell from csh to bash? > > Thanks > Sam > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
