#135: /etc/shells or chsh needs patching-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
Reporter:  jdreed  |      Owner:     
    Type:  defect  |     Status:  new
Priority:  major   |   Keywords:     
-------------------+-------------------------------------------------------- Moira's chsh uses /etc/shells to determine whether the user is trying to
 shoot themselves in the foot or not.  We should either:

 - add /bin/athena/tcsh and /bin/athena/bash to /etc/shells  (I think we
 can skip cruft that's in /etc/shells on Athena 9, like shells from the gnu
 or sipb lockers)

 - Patch chsh to use some new list (/etc/shells.moira) or something.  That
 way we can also remove things like /sbin/nologin from the list, since on
 Athena 9, Moira will happily let you change your shell to that.
