There are various options in sssd.conf to handle missing or undefined shells, like e.g. override_shell, allowed_shells, vetoed_shells, shell_fallback and default_shell.

These options are mainly evaluated in get_shell_override() where currently only SYSDB_SHELL is taken into account but not OVERRIDE_PREFIX SYSDB_SHELL if it exists. It should be checked if a combination of the sssd.conf option together with the overridden shell will still lead to the expected reuslts.

Thank you for taking time to submit this request for SSSD. Unfortunately this issue was not given priority and the team lacks the capacity to work on it at this time.

Given that we are unable to fulfill this request I am closing the issue as wontfix.

If the issue still persist on recent SSSD you can request re-consideration of this decision by reopening this issue. Please provide additional technical details about its importance to you.

Thank you for understanding.
