Romain, All,

On 2018-01-13 17:05 +0100, Romain Naour spake thusly:
> When bash is selected, /bin/bash is not added to /etc/shells
> (see man shells). So, login tools like dropbear reject the ssh
> connexions for users using bash as shell in /etc/passwd.
> 
> buildroot authpriv.warn dropbear[853]: User 'kubu' has invalid shell, rejected
