should work fine. -e means if file exists, and -f means if file exists 
and is a regular file, and [] means run test. in bash test is integrated 
into the shell, but on bourne and compatibles [] calls the test program, 
and IIRC bash does the same when running in bourne compatibility mode, 
which is something it does when the first line of the script is 
#!/bin/sh. does the solaris man page for test list the -e option? also 
does the solaris shell have test integrated?
