Sympathetic fibers innervate sweat glands.
Sweat glands are innervated by adrenergic sympathetic nerve fibers from the autonomic nervous system. These fibers release norepinephrine, which stimulates the sweat glands to produce sweat.
The sympathetic division innervates the sweat glands and hair follicles.
Your sweat glands are controlled by autonomic nervous system. They get the nervous supply through the sympathetic nerves. But functionally they are parasympathetic nerves, because the acetylcholine is secreted over there at the terminal end.
The nervous system. Sweating is regulated by the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system, over which we have little control. Its major role is to prevent overheating of the body.
The secretion of sweat is controlled by the nervous system. Specialized nerve fibers called sympathetic nerves stimulate the sweat glands to produce sweat in response to factors such as temperature, physical activity, and emotions.

They are sympathetic but an exception - ACh is released as a post-synaptic neurotransmitter rather than Adrenaline/Noradrenaline.Illicitinga parasympathetic response will not stimulate these neurons and therefore sweating is not a parasympathetic side effect.However, as post-synaptic sweat glands contain Muscarinic receptors and not adrenoceptors the administration of a non-selective Muscarinic agonist would result in both a parasympathetic response such as constriction of the pupil or decreased heart rate as well as sweating due to the activation of these sympathetic post-synaptic MAChR in the sweat glands.Atropine would reduce all parasympathetic responses and stop sweating.
No, post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers mostly release norepinephrine. But they do release some ACh to the sweat glands, which causes concurrent vasodilation of surrounding blood vessels (paired with release of bradykinin from sweat glands).

No, they have sweat glands
Our sweat glands are supplied by a set of nerves knows as the sympathetic nervous system. This is the system that is in charge of dealing with alarming situations, known as the fight or flight system. When this system kicks in, the body heats up and sweat glands secrete sweat to cool the body down.
