Not in Solaris. At least, not in 2.6 or 7. Instead,
sh is linked to jsh (which I know nothing about).
Solaris 7:
tsmlibrary# cd /bin
tsmlibrary# ls -l sh ksh jsh
-r-xr-xr-x 3 bin root 91668 Oct 6 1998 jsh
-r-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 192764 Oct 6 1998 ksh
-r-xr-xr-x 3 bin root 91668 Oct 6 1998 sh
Solaris 2.6:
nzwnsubo10001# cd /bin
nzwnsubo10001# ls -l sh ksh jsh
-r-xr-xr-x 3 bin root 88620 Jul 16 1997 jsh
-r-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 186356 Jul 16 1997 ksh
-r-xr-xr-x 3 bin root 88620 Jul 16 1997 sh

A note for anyone wondering about Solaris version numbers, the more
recent part of the sequence goes like this:
2.5
2.5.1
2.6
2.7 also known as 7
[2.]8
There is more to the story but this will do, I think.
