-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Looks to me like you are running zsh from bash as though it were an executable program. If you have installed zsh with a packaging system such as yum or apt-get, you should use the usermod command as root to change your user's shell to /bin/zsh, like so: # usermod -s /bin/zsh username Then log out of username and log back in again. Before you get to a prompt, you will have a configuration script with menu selections to configure your initial setup. That would be a good start. - -- The Moon is Waning Crescent (46% of Full) Get downloads from http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh and remember, INFORMATION WANTS TO BE FREE! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEb2dEXnuiIOyDVQURAkg6AJ4qtYfl5K+QSFI2rVTUb4NHVWxd8wCgo50B Tl1ANhki0zoplLsyDKV/CeU= =yk1p -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
