Then for every new connection, the .profile file will compare the $SSH_CLIENT variable environnment with this regex : ``` class { 'root': ip_zsh => "(10.10.10.1|192.168.0.42)", } ``` ### Other default shell Bash is the default shell use on Debian, if you prefer an advanced shell or didn't have Bash, you can define the DEFAULT_SHELL_PATH argument : ``` class { 'root': default_shell_path => '/bin/zsh', } ``` Then, every connection from 10.10.10.1 or 192.168.0.42 will automatically have ZSH as default shell. ## Reference ### Classes * `root` : Main class, automatically load all needed privates classes. ### Parameters * `profile_path` : Path to the .profile to load personal initialization. Defaults to '/root/.profile'. * `profile_content` : Template file used to generate the previous configuration file. Defaults to 'root/preferences/profile.erb'. * `bashrc_path` : Path to the Bash's rcfile. Defaults to '/root/.bashrc'. * `bashrc_content` : Template file used to generate the previous configuration file. Default to 'root/preferences/bashrc.erb'. * `default_shell_path` : Path to a bin file to use as default shell for root. Defaults to '/bin/bash'. * `ip_zsh` : A regex to determine if a ssh client should have ZSH as default shell. Defaults to '127.0.0.1'. ## Limitations This module was only tested on Debian 7.x and 8.x but should work quite few Debian's fork.
