Hi,

We are using NIS passwd. Some users want to change their login shell. When
issuing chsh command, get the following message:
User not found in the local /etc/passwd file. Use 'yppasswd' to change an
NIS passwd entry.

However, it seems that ypppasswd can't change user's login shell. Are
there any methods to change user's login shell?

Regards,

Cai
