 samasaur | We actually do, it just uses dscl instead of chsh | 15:33:21 |
| samasaur | the documentation also says that shell is only honored when creating a user but that does not appear to be the case in practice | 15:34:49 |
 Randy Eckenrode | When did that change? Do you have to be a member of knownUsers? | 15:35:00 |
| samasaur | yes you do | 15:36:59 |
| samasaur | I'm not sure when it changed, it seems like the behavior has been there for a while | 15:37:41 |
| samasaur | of course if the documentation says that it won't do anything, people are less likely to try it | 15:38:00 |
| Randy Eckenrode | That’s good to know. I still avoid knownUsers for historical reasons, but maybe I should reconsider that. | 15:38:25 |
| samasaur | Yeah, I avoid all of the user settings for the same reason, I was just pretty sure we supported setting your shell | 15:40:43 |
| samasaur | well "historical reasons" and "apple likes changing things out from under us so even if something used to work there's no guarantee it still does" | 15:41:21 |
|  altaria joined the room. | 23:14:22 |
