Howdy,
Also, bash should indeed be the default shell used for new users as of Virtualmin 3.94.
-Eric
I can confirm what Eric said. My fresh 3.94 test installation has the default admin shell set to bash.
For my 4.00 Virtualmin, the default shell for non-admin users is sh, not bash. Although root defaults to bash...
Nonetheless, it's easy to change as noted above.
As a side note, to change the initial shell for existing users, use the webmin --> users and groups module.
Each user has a default shell option.
