i've made a mistake. i changed my login shell to tcsh in the passwd file without checking where the tcsh resides. i thought it would be the same as the default sh which is in /bin. now i am unable to login as the system say &quot;cannot execute /bin/tcsh. no such file or directory&quot;. then the login prompt is showed up again. help is much appreciated.
