       The chsh.ldap command can be used to change user's login shell (command interpreter).

       The  actual change in LDAP is performed by the nslcd daemon and is subject to the access controls config‐
       ured in the LDAP server.

       The options that may be specified to the chsh.ldap command are:

       -s, --shellSHELL
              The name of the user's new login shell.  Setting this field to blank causes the system  to  select
              the default login shell.

       -l, --list-shells
              Print the list of shells found in /etc/shells and exit.

              Display short help and exit.

       -V,--version
              Output version information and exit.

       If no option is specified chsh.ldap will prompt the user to enter a value for the shell.
