Not every Unix-like OS comes with bash, and certainly not by default. In particular, Solaris ships with a particularly crippled /bin/sh, although they do have a proper POSIX-compatible Bourne shell at /usr/xpg4/bin/sh.

If your Solaris machines have /bin/bash available, consider yourself very lucky.
