Issue related to shells
What is the difference between login shell-non login shell and nologin shell? How will you classify whether it's login shell or non login shell in standalone linux system? What do you mean by Interactive shell and non Interative shell? I will be very thankful to you if I get any suggestion on it...

non login shell - no $ or # prompt and no need to type commands, it is good for running script and automated stuff nologin shell - User has account but cannot login to server, useful for email/pop3 services. Also useful for running daemon process such as httpd

Thx for your reply..
thx a lot for replying to my query.
Do system users usually have non loginshell? I am asking this because they do not have permissions like normal users and root. Am I correct?
