How to install and run sh in Redhat 9???


I have an application that needs to be running in true sh shell, not sh linked to bash. It needs to be able to load the .login and .cshrc files when the user logs in, etc.

I have looked for sh rpm's but they only make them for redhat up to version 8.0.

Does anyone know where I can find sh to install onto my Redhat 9.0 server, or how I could configure it so that the users "truly" log into sh when they login?

Thanks in advance,
Dean

Not sure where to find an RPM for bourne shell. I didn't even find any on RPMFind.net to even download.

Might just have to search elsewhere for it, maybe install it from source (tar.gz).

After finding, downloading, and installing, to have you users use a true sh shell.. you will want to edit the /etc/passwd file and make their valid shell point to /bin/sh
