Hello lhareigh890:
You neglected to state which operating system you're using. On the platforms I use, to be a valid login shell an executable must be listed in /etc/shells.
---------- Post updated at 10:08 AM ---------- Previous update was at 09:53 AM ----------
Actually, I don't think either login or ssh consult /etc/shells, but I'll leave its mention there in case it's helpful in some way.
Also, bear in mind that to be able to execute a file, you not only need execute permission on the file, but execute (aka search) permission on every directory in its path.
Regards,
Alister

MKDIC(1) General Commands Manual MKDIC(1)
NAME
mkdic - Tool for creating a user dictionary
SYNOPSIS
mkdic [{-cs|-cannaserver} canna-server] [-s] [- | -l local-file] remote-dic
DESCRIPTION
mkdic creates user dictionary named remote-dic in the user dictionary directory of the remote host, on which cannaserver(1M) is in opera-
tion. Dictionary file name remote-dic is assigned to this file at this time.
If the - and -l option isn't specified, mkdic creates an empty dictionary.
If the - option is specified, the standard input will be used as the dictionary file. If the -l option is specified, local-file will be
used as the dictionary file.
If the user dictionary directory does not exist, it will be created.
Dictionary directory file -- dics.dir -- is rewritten automatically after the registering. The registered dictionary can thus be used by
writing the dictionary name into the customize file.
OPTIONS
-cs canna-server (or -cannaserver canna-server)
Specifies the server machine that contains the dictionary to be created.
-s Indicates that the dictionary to be created is an adjunct dictionary. If this option is omitted, the dictionary will be cre-
ated as an independent-word one.
-l local-file
Registers the input data from local-file.
- The standard input will be used as the dictionary file.
EXAMPLES(1) If you want to creat an empty dictionary file:
% mkdic test(2) If you want to register the input data from the standard input:
% mkdic test -
Registers the input data from the standard input, in the user dictionary directory under dictionary name ``test''. The following line is
then added to dictionary directory file -- dics.dir -- :
user1.t(.mwd) -test-(3) If the dictionary file is specified:
% mkdic test -l test1.t
Registers independent-word dictionary file ``test1.t'' in the remote host's user dictionary directory under dictionary name ``test''. The
following line is then added to dics.dir:
user1.t(.mvd) -test-
user1.t is a dictionary file name generated automatically by the system.
