UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

My oracle account uses tsch to use .cshrc. "Somehow" it was switch to sh and changed the login environment.
My question is who has the right to change sh to tsch or other shells? How can I change back the original setting(tsch) from sh?

This is what is appear in my /etc/passwd:

oracle:x:108:101:Oracle:/export/home/oracle:/bin/sh

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I am currently running SUN 5.9

Your administrator/s can change it back for you, or try this topic and see if it helps.

If you are in an environment with too many rogue sysadmins, you do have some nice tools at your disposal under Solaris. Solaris uses the Basic Security Module (BSM) to audit actions on a system. It's not small undertaking to begin to use, but I have found it worthwhile.

Take a look at the following man pages:

bsmconv(1M), praudit(1M), audit(2), audit_control(4),
audit_user(4), attributes(5)

You'd also be better off using RBAC (Role Based Access Control) rather than sudo, as in it's current itteration, it breaks the audit trail. If any real interest is expressed by the group surrounding RBAC or BSM, I'd be happy to throw some FAQ(s)/Processes out in our "Answers to Frequently Asked Questions" forum.
