DESCRIPTION
chsh is used
to change your login shell. If a shell is not given on the
command line, chsh prompts for one.
VALID SHELLS
chsh will
accept the full pathname of any executable file on the
system. However, it will issue a warning if the shell is
not listed in the /etc/shells
file. On the other hand, it can also be configured such
that it will only accept shells listed in this file, unless
you are root.
