I managed to (don't ask how) set the root login shell to /bin/bash and now I can't change it!! I tried "su -s /bin/sh" but it didn't work. I think it was because /bin/false is not in /etc/shells. Anybody knows how to fix this? Preferably whithout restarting the machine. - Henrik _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
