Description Martin Kho 2011-11-22 14:53:36 UTC 
Description of problem:
A newly created user gets the sh shell because /bin/dash doesn't exist. /bin/dash have to be /bin/bash I suppose.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
system-config-users-1.2.110-1.fc16.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Press button Add User
2. Look at field Login Shell (/bin/*d*ash)
3.
  
Actual results:
New User gets sh as shell instead of bash

Expected results:
New user gets bash shell

Additional info:
This also happens in the Rawhide version.

Hi,

Forgot to mention, that useradd works okay.

Sorry it took me so long to respond.

System-config-users uses whatever is in /etc/shells and IIRC there was a problem around the time you submitted this bug where /bin/bash was missing from this file in some installations. Assuming that this is the cause of your problem I'll close this bug as a duplicate of bug #752827 which tracks this issue, introduced through scriptlets of the bash package.
