I just tried to install 'zsh', but when I use the command 'chsh' to change the bash to 'zsh'($ chsh -s /bin/zsh), the bash showed me 'chsh : command not found'. And then I opened the folder '/etc/pam.d/' , I found that the command 'chsh' has gone.
I have compared the directory '/etc/pam.d/' of the Centos7 and CentOS8, it's really a big difference.
So, can any one tell me how to install the command 'chsh' on CentOS8? OR how can I fixit ?
Appreciate your goodness.
Regards.

util-linux-user-2.32.1-17.el8.x86_64 : libuser based util-linux utilities
Repo : BaseOS
Matched from:
Filename : /etc/pam.d/chsh
Filename : /usr/bin/chsh
Filename : /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/chsh
Is it installed?
Thanks for reading.
I've tried to use the command'dnf search chsh', and it showed me'no match'.
I want to copy the 'chsh' from CentOS7 to 8, but I don't know how to do that.
Do you have some better ways to solve this problem?
Thank you.

Two packages are found that provide name "chsh". Both packages actually provide three such files:
/etc/pam.d/chsh, /usr/bin/chsh, /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/chsh
The name of both package is "util-linux-user", version "2.32.1-17.el8" and architecture "x86_64".
Why two of the same? They are copies in two different repositories: "System" and "BaseOS".
The "@" tells that this package is already installed and it was installed from "System", that is from the ISO image by OS installer.

CentOS 8.0.1905 - 'chsh' : command not found
Hello All:

Thanks for reading, I've updated the version to 8.1-1991, but, I's still 'command not found'.
Do you know any way to download or install the 'chsh'?

OK, guys , I found a way to change the default shell:
change the target user's bash shell to what you want.
But, I still want to know how to fix the 'chsh'.
If you know that, tell me , please. Thank you .
Regards.

How to read the output. Two examples:
Code: Select all
No package in any of the enabled repositories provides file (or directory) with name "fubar".
Code: Select all
Two packages are found that provide name "chsh". Both packages actually provide three such files:
/etc/pam.d/chsh, /usr/bin/chsh, /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/chsh
The name of both package is "util-linux-user", version "2.32.1-17.el8" and architecture "x86_64".
Why two of the same? They are copies in two different repositories: "System" and "BaseOS".
The "@" tells that this package is already installed and it was installed from "System", that is from the ISO image by OS installer.
Overall, the format of an entry in output is:
Code: Select all
