>Description:
The man page for adduser says that for adding users with the -f switch one must use the full path to the the desired login shell (see section FORMAT).  This is incorrect, rather one must, as adduser is currently impleimented, use only the shell name, e.g. "tcsh" or "bash".
>How-To-Repeat:
use adduser -f <filename> while the file referenced has something to the effect of user1::::::::/usr/local/bin/bash:      
>Fix:
update the manpage, or if the maintainer wants to make it more difficult rewrite the adduser script.

 Hi,
 
 this seems to be fixed in RELENG_5 and HEAD.  Does the new wording
 sound ok to you?
 
 (Please use http://www.freebsd.org/docs.html#man if you don't have an up
 to date system)
