DANA HUDES:

While sh is in /bin, ksh is not.

/usr/bin/ksh

is the path you need

Crews, Richie [Richie.Crews@turner.com]:

You need to create a file called /etc/shells, the best way to do it
(assuming ksh is in /bin) is "ls -1 /bin/*sh > /etc/shells"

I think this will solve the issue...will let you as soon as I get to it.

Hello folks,

I just installed solaris 10 in sunfire 890. I changed the root login
shell to ksh from sh and rebooted. I get error saying that shell is not
found at the login prompt after I enter the password. Where am I
foobarring?

Thanks,

p.s. any resolution to this issue is also appreciated.
