How to set for a user a non-login shell?

Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
I am a root in a Unix system. My shell is bash.

2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:
How to set for a certain user:
* a non-login interactive shell,
* a login, non-interactive shell,
* a non-login, non-interactive shell.

3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
I read everything I could find, I only found information which files are read by different types of shells. I cannot find anywhere how a root can set a certain shell. I know about useradd and adduser commands where I can use the option -s but I do not know what to put after -s to set a non-interactive shell.

4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):

DROP TEXT SEARCH 
TEMPLATE(7)				  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation			      DROP TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE(7)

NAME

       DROP_TEXT_SEARCH_TEMPLATE - remove a text search template

SYNOPSIS

       DROP TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE [ IF EXISTS ] name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION

       DROP TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE drops an existing text search template. You must be a superuser to use this command.

PARAMETERS

       IF EXISTS
	   Do not throw an error if the text search template does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.

       name
	   The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing text search template.

       CASCADE
	   Automatically drop objects that depend on the text search template.

       RESTRICT
	   Refuse to drop the text search template if any objects depend on it. This is the default.

EXAMPLES

       Remove the text search template thesaurus:

	   DROP TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE thesaurus;

       This command will not succeed if there are any existing text search dictionaries that use the template. Add CASCADE to drop such
       dictionaries along with the template.

COMPATIBILITY

       There is no DROP TEXT SEARCH TEMPLATE statement in the SQL standard.

SEE ALSO
