[SunHELP] bash for root
Tue Mar 25 00:53:18 CST 2003
its not a good idea to have a dynamicly linked shell for root, as something
goes wrong and you cant use dynamiclinked shells thus you wont be able to
login as root.
as /sbin/sh is staticly linked
file /bin/bash
/bin/bash: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked,
stripped
file /sbin/sh
/sbin/sh: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, statically linked,
stripped

Is is alright for root to use bash. IF so, would I use /bin/bash? I am
mostly interested in the command finishing <tab> feature so what would my
alternative be?
thanks
