Yes, FreeBSD defaults to csh which is a link to tcsh; OpenBSD which is my primary platform uses ksh or rather their own modified pdksh. They have incorporated some bash-like "things". NetBSD defaults to sh, but you can choose other shells, either csh or ksh - bash is not included in the default installation.
