You have done something wrong/different than what appears on a relatively clean install: $ cat /etc/issue Debian GNU/Linux 7 \n \l $ cat /etc/debian_version 7.6 $ ls -laF /bin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Mar 1 2012 /bin/sh -> dash* $ grep root /etc/passwd root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh I'm curious now... did you install a server or desktop version of Debian? Was if from netinst or cds, etc.? -Jim P.
