changes the user login shell. This determines the name of the user's initial login command. A normal user may only change the login shell for her own account, the super user may change the login shell for any account.

|
The only restrictions placed on the login shell is that the command name must be listed in
|
|
\fI/etc/shells\fR, unless the invoker is the super\-user, and then any value may be added. An account with a restricted login shell may not change her login shell. For this reason, placing
|
|
\fI/bin/rsh\fR
|
|
in
|
|
\fI/etc/shells\fR
|
|
is discouraged since accidentally changing to a restricted shell would prevent the user from every changing her login shell back to its original value.
