START_SH(1)                          SysV                          START_SH(1)



NAME
     start_sh - start a log-in shell

SYNOPSIS
     start_sh
     start_csh
     start_ksh
     start_rsh

DESCRIPTION
     When you log in, the first shell is a log-in shell, therefore, the first
     argument is preceded by a -.  This first shell runs your .profile or
     .login file.  There should only be a single "log-in shell" created when
     you first log in.  Other shells could be created with the DM commands
     like:

             cp /bin/ksh - DENV=~/.kshrc.pad
             cp /bin/sh - DENV=~/.shrc.pad
             cp /bin/csh - DNEWPAD=true

     See csh(1) for more information about the C shell.

NOTE
     start_csh starts a log-in C shell (one that reads your .login file).
     start_csh is supported for compatibility with previous releases, and is
     not the recommended command to use at SR10.
