Where does shell get set?

Somewhere along the way, I did something that changed my shell settings. A terminal window used to open under csh, now it opens under bash - and off course all my settings don't get sourced.
I'm not sure what changed - it probably happened when I updated Fink or MacPorts, but in any case, I can't seem to figure out where the default shell gets set (obviously not in /etc/passwd - it isn't used in OS X). Seems to me there used to be a utility, but I can't find it anymore. Perhaps things changed in Snow Leopard?
Pointers, suggestions anyone? Thanks!

In 10.5.8 if you open the Accounts panel of System Preferences, and authenticate by clicking on the lock at the bottom, you can control-click on your account and select "Advanced Options" from the drop-down menu. The resulting panel allows you to set the shell. I don't know if that's still the case with 10.6.

  • Where Does documents gets stored using FM SO_DOCUMENT_INSERT_API1

    Hi All,
    I am using FM SO_DOCUMENT_INSERT_API1 to store document from WD interface. Now I have couple of questions
    1) Is this FM creates a sap office document
    If yes how do I transfer SAP office documents storage from table SOFFCONT1 (default) to external content server.
    Now If its a sap office document I have refereed this [link|Re: Generic Object Services]
    and when I go to change storage catagory and change document area in transaction OACT to document management system it gives me prompt Repository SOFFDB does not have an explicit document area.
    Please clarify over above two points.
    Thanks in Advance

  • Where does FireFox get the default value of a preference from. What is the format of the file that has the default value?

    Where does FireFox get the default value of a preference from. What is the format of the file that has the default value?. I need the actual default value for a particualr preference.
    About:config does show some default values but I need the source from which about:config picks up the default value.
    Any help in this direction is greatly appreciated.

  • Where does Lion get its usernames? (former Linux user)

    Just some minutes ago, I opened the lid of my Macbook and noticed that something was using the CPU for 50% continuously. When I opened Activity Monitor, the only two CPU-using processes were kernel_task and WindowsServer, but not enough to cover 50%.
    Safari also wouldn't respond. Force-quitting worked, but starting it again would show the window but then result in a spinning beachball of death.
    When I opened the terminal, the prompt said "I have no name!@macbook$ "
    When I typed the command "id", it gave me a user ID (502) but no username!
    After killing all apps and mucking about, the CPU suddenly went back to the normal 3-5% usage, and everything worked fine again.
    Obviously, something went wrong with the process that does the user identification. As a former Linux user, I'd say the user data resides in /etc/passwd but that's not where it's at. Where does Lion get its usernames and passwords?

    OK thanks for the DSCL tip. I've found another thread with the same symptoms:

    The logs of the opendirectoryd process show that it restarted itself (from /var/log/opendirectoryd.log):
    2012-04-15 13:26:56.346 CEST - Loaded bundle at path .....
    The system logs show a couple of errors from coreservicesd:

    And then thousands of these two lines follow:

    Let's see if it happens again in the future. I'm logging this for reference and Google.

  • Where does SMC get the power to reset?

    Where does SMC get the power to reset?

    The SMC is maintained when the battery is connected or the charger is. When removed the SMC's content is erased. However, if your computer has a PRAM battery, then the SMC may use that instead of the main battery. But not all notebooks have a PRAM battery but rely on the main battery only. All depends on the specific motherboard design. Typically, these lithium cells have a maximum life of around 5 years.
    In any case you have not stated what you think the problem is with your SMC, so I cannot say whether your assumption about having a dead PRAM battery is correct. If you cannot maintain PRAM settings, then that would be more indicative or the battery being dead.

  • [ADF] Focus does not get set on a second level dialog/popup

    Hi,
    While working on a related bug, I've discovered that for every second level dialog/popup(a popup that is invoked from another popup), the focus does not get set to the second level dialog if the first component in that popup is an inputText, unless a user explicitly clicks on it. By focus I mean that on pressing tab, the fields on the previous popup still get selected/highlighted.
    This does not happen if the first UI Component is any other; everything else kept the same. I suspect this is an ADF bug; does anyone know of a workaround?
    Thanks,
    Ravikiran Sastry

    Hello,
    we are having the same issue using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4 and Internet Explorer 8.
    The code is really simple: just a regular popup with an inputListOfValues component inside. Open the popup, open the inputListOfValue's "Search and Select" popup and if you press the Esc key, the first one will be closed, while the "Search and select" popup will remain there.

  • Where does apex get user details from for login in

    sorry for this stupid question. I have been looking up in google "where does apex get user details from for login in" and nothing answers my question. Basically I wanted to know when you log in your application how does apex know you have access to this application. How does it know you are a valid user because I am creating an application which basically checks if a user exist in one database and also checks if he/she exist in the second database.
    Thanks you and sorry if this is very newbie

    In the page 101 which is the login in page in the login in process. I have this in the source its not working in term of it is not letting me login in anymore even though I exist in the user table.
    DECLARE
    v_access_level number;
    BEGIN
    SELECT count(*)INTO
    v_access_level
    FROM USER
    WHERE UPPER(USER_NAME) = UPPER(:APP_USER);
    IF NVL(v_access_level, 0) !=0 THEN
    wwv_flow_custom_auth_std.login(
        P_UNAME       => :P101_USERNAME,
        P_PASSWORD    => :P101_PASSWORD,
        P_SESSION_ID  => v('APP_SESSION'),
        P_FLOW_PAGE   => :APP_ID||':9'
    ELSE

        P_SESSION_ID  => v('APP_SESSION'),
        P_FLOW_PAGE   => :APP_ID||':9'
    END IF;
    end;
    please bare in mind that my USER table DOES NOT have a password because the authentication scheme as all the details of login in to any systems. I am only trying to check if the username exist in my USER table.
    Thanks

  • OSX - SCEP Agent - Where does it get updates from?

    Really simple question that I simply cannot find an answer to.
    Where does the OSX version of the System Center Endpoint Protection agent download it's updates from?
    For Windows clients we have it set to get updates from SCCM and then failback to Microsoft Update.  In SCCM I can see those updates because they are auto-approved to our Software Update Points.  Does the OSX agent use SCCM and the same update definitions
    or does it just always use Microsoft Update??

    Hi,
    It doesn't use Windows Update or SCCM at all it is updated directly from the cloud.

  • Where does MARS get netbios information?

    When you click on a device from the Attack Diagram, then go to More Information for the Device, MARS will display the domain name and the Netbios name.
    Just wondering where it is getting the Netbios name.
    Often times it is wrong,(but consistent).
    Thanks

    NetBIOS provides name registration and resolution services. MARS uses this setting to provide attack path analysis and address resolution

  • Where does reports get saved in Database

    Hi
    Can anyone please tell me
    1) Where does exactly (in which table) Reports get saved in Database.
    2) Where does Business Area and Its folders get saved in database
    3) How can I modify look and feel and Customize toolbar in discoverer Plus/Viewer other than the default colour scheme provide by discoverer itself.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Though others have answered your first two questions, I would even question why you need to know the exact location / table where these objects get stored.
    You cannot customize the toolbar in Plus - you can change the look and feel by changing the LAF that applies to Plus. To do this, go to the App Server Control (AS Control > Discoverer > Discoverer Plus > Look and Feel) and you can select from one of three out-of-the-box LAFs: System, Plastic, Browser, and Oracle. You can also create your own LAF.
    For Viewer, you can use the App Server control to customize the Look And Feel as well as the Layout of Viewer.
    Thanks
