How to change our default shell?..

Answer / siba sankar nayak

Normally the diffault shell can not be changed by user in
Solaris system. Because chsh command is not available in
Solaris environment. But one can change the default shell
in Linux environment by using following command.

chsh -s /bin/ksh
After issuing this command it will ask for passeord and if
password is given successfully then default shell will be
changed. Here you have to give the full path of shell.

Answer / tony

The real answer may be, to ask whoever has access to ROOT, to set your default Shell to another one. He or she should not do that, at least before asking you : why ?
Additionally, he would still be reluctant of making any changes, because of the impact it can have.
In normal situations, the correct Shell is setup at user setup, and is never changed. Command to do that are USERADD and USERMOD (and other I'm sure).
