Default shell

In debian 7.8 the default shell is bash. Do

env | grep SHELL

to check it.

Changing the default shell

To change the default shell to bash do

chsh

and enter an other shell like sh, dash, csh ksh

sh

sh points to

ls -l /bin/sh

and you get

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 mrt  1  2012 /bin/sh -> dash

However, after doing

sh
env | grep SHELL

the shell is still bash. What are we missing?
