Schwertfeger" X-Sender: ejs@harlie To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Changing roots shell, what considerations? Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I tend to get annoyed when my fingers automatically type constructs that don't work under csh, and was wondering what the ramifications of changing root's shell to use /bin/sh as its default shell instead of csh. Has anyone done this and had problems? done it and didn't? I won't ask if anyone has an opinion, but I'll listen to them too :-)
