Well I haven't used Amiga UNIX, but I can tell you this much. Under Berkeley, the user can change his login shell with a command (the name of it escapes me at the moment) but under System V, only the system administrator can change the login shell. And since Amiga UNIX is System V (albeit Release 4), I would assume the latter is why you couldn't change your login shell. -- uunet!dialogic!gerry | "Even a dead plant turns | Dialogic Corporation OR | over a new leaf | 300 Littleton Rd gerry@dialogic.UUCP | when the wind blows." | Parsippany, NJ 07054 | | (201)334-8450
