Likely it means, that the shell behind /bin/sh does not accept the "-l"
argument for login. Tramp does not know, which shell is called via
/bin/sh, and which arguments this special shell does accept. So this
must be overwritten in your case.

What is the argument of that shell in order to open a login shell? Could
show the help output of that shell?

Best regards, Michael.
