Description Dmitri Pal 2012-04-12 13:34:33 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1087

nss_ldap provides a trivial way to force a shell to users:

nss_override_attribute_value loginShell /bin/bash

However, with SSSD if the shell option is not populated in LDAP the shell users will get depends on libc, usually being /bin/sh and no way for an administrator to force a certain shell.

SSSD should allow "easily" to force a certain shell for all users, regardless of LDAP configuration.
