      I posted here a while back about an issue with keyboard translation
with MacOS 10.10.3, it worked fine on my sons computer but not on a customers
with the same OS.

      I went to the customers premise today and from his machine logged in as
myself and the keyboard worked properly, logged in as him and it did not.

      We narrowed it down to his having /bin/csh as the shell on the Ubuntu
14.04 server and I /bin/ksh.  Changing his shell to ksh resolved the
translation issue.

      However, from a Ubuntu 14.10 Linux workstation, it is fine to have csh
as the shell on the server, it only breaks if originating from a MacOS
workstation.

      Any idea why it would matter what login shell is used if originating
from a mac but not from Linux?
