SSSD Override Shell

If you have SSSD running and the default shell is ksh even with the default shell set to bash.

Here’s the fix to override the default shell in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf. Add override_shell.

default_shell = /bin/bash
override_shell = /bin/bash

To check which shell you are using.

echo $SHELL
/bin/bash
