System: 4.11-RC1 FreeBSD 4.11-RC1 #0: Fri Dec 17 16:47:15 GMT 2004
>Description:
In a fresh install of 4.11-RC1 /etc/shells contains "/usr/local/bin/bash2" instead of the familar "/usr/local/bin/bash", consequently sysinstall and chsh do not see "/usr/local/bin/bash" as a valid shell.
This is different than the behavior in the past.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to set a user's shell to bash with sysinstall or chsh.
>Fix:
Change "/usr/local/bin/bash2" to "/usr/local/bin/bash" or additionally add "/usr/local/bin/bash" to /etc/shells.
