[Freeipa-users] Creating Home directories still presents as -sh-4.1$ after changing oddjob mask

[Sina Owolabi]

Sorry I was misunderstood. The umm.../bin/sh? Was me being sheepish after
causing all the ruckus this morning.
-sh-4.1$ getent passwd sina
sina:*:392100000:392100000:Sina Owolabi:/home/sina:/bin/sh

How do I change the default to /bin/bash?
