ok I figured to add their shell to /bin/bash. is there a way to make that the default upon new non-admin user creation?

ok I have to create the users in virt first then goto the system area of webmin and change their shell from /bin/false to /bin/bash or whatever i want.

Howdy -- the way you described does work.
Another option is that when creating a user, you can go into "Other User Permissions".
There, you can set "Login Permissions" to include "SSH".

Tried that..but it is not available..hence the manual way. Did not know if that was a feature or an issue..:) if it is an issue refer to thread https://www.virtualmin.com/comment/761509#comment-761509 for remote access creds..:)

You may need to add that ability for users who aren't Virtual Server owners.
You can set what shells are used by default by going into System Customization -> Custom Shells, and there you can specify what shells are available to which types of users.
