Hi John,
I followed your suggestions.
(1) sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
changed to bash
root@cln05:~# ls -al /bin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2011-05-20 07:41 /bin/sh -> bash
Be the way - the default login shell of the user is /usr/bin/tcsh
So - no luck at all !
(2) I changed the default user shell to /bin/bash
And I was able to log in.
Now - first of all I'm happy to get it working. But the default login shell of my users is tcsh and all their scientific scripts are based on tcsh. So they won't change to /bin/bash.
I would be pleased - if somebody shows me a work around.
Cheers,
Vadim
