Never saw something called 'tsh' , But if you execute "/usr/bin/ksh", you should get Korn Shell. Or you could modify the user to have "Korn shell" as the primary shell.

trusted shell .... name says it all. You would probably need your root user to modify your account to have /usr/bin/ksh instead of tsh.
