Linux Shell Change




To change your shell with chsh:
  1. cat /etc/shells
    At the shell prompt, list the available shells on your system with cat /etc/shells.
  2. chsh
    Enter chsh (for "change shell"). Code Listing 3.5 shows the system response. Some systems prompt for a password, and some don't.
  3. /bin/zsh
    Type in the path and name of your new shell.
  4. su - yourid
    Type in su - and your userid to relog in to verify that everything works correctly. If it doesn't, use chsh again and change back to the original shell or to a different one. If you can't change back, email your system administrator for help.
