This tutorial will help you change the default shell for your user.
Generally you can edit that in /et/passwd but sometimes this doesn't work.

In UNIX you have a handy console tool called chsh. You execute that from the command line and it will open your user profile in the default editor for the system.
You will see something like this:


#Changing user information for user.
