You will be prompted for your password, enter it.
Now type the following:

dn: uid=USERNAME,ou=People,dc=vtluug,dc=org
changetype: modify
replace: loginShell
loginShell: /usr/bin/zsh

Replace USERNAME with your username, and replace /usr/bin/zsh with your desired shell if zsh isn't what you want.

Press Ctrl-D, wait about 10 minutes, then log back in. Your new shell should work.
