I can make it available to you but I have to warn you since we threw it aboard. On Linux boxes we got problems that some applications were not able to launch properly and on AIX we had same problems with Eclipse even though on both OS'es the parameters for the login shell seemed ok.
After all the experimenting with the script we took the advise in the Redbook that you should just use /bin/sh for all users. On Linux it usually translates to bash and on AIX to ksh. Exceptions like developers that need csh etc. we wanted to spare out of LDAP since our permission management that control the permissions via LDAP groups on some front end are not in the mood to administer different shells for users.
