You can make a soft link to the zsh --which purportedly provides some extensions to ksh's functionality:
ln -s /bin/zsh /bin/ksh Hence the above is correct and not the previous assertion of the symbolic link ...
Then simply invoke and customize your new "ksh"
I came across the problem when installing IBM middleware. Needless to say the above incantation saved the day.
On the other hand, the Penguin will allow you freedom of choice. Download the RPM for the public domain korn shell (pdksh) and install and customize to your pleasure. I believe Slackware continues including it.
