I thought of that -- I logged out and back in, no joy. I rebooted, same thing.
I wasn't too surprised. I assumed that rebooting the machine would just put stuff back the way it was. And that the problem was with the scripts in the user directories.
That wasn't it, and I was working on the wrong things. Lisi's insight led me to this afternoon's solution. And deloptes came up with another very interesting thought (which I haven't investigated yet).
Does chsh change things for good -- in passwd or in a shell var or a link? I thought it just started a shell, as if it was just starting a new program.
