[clue-tech] su problem

[Mike Staver]

Anybody seen this before?

[root at mail mail]# su hfrost
su: /bin/bash  : No such file or directory

I can successfully su to any other account on the system, just not this 
one.  Here is some more info that may or may not be relevant:

[root at mail hfrost]# pwd
