Why simulate when you can have the real deal?

What are you intending to simulate on? And what is your definition of UNIX?

If I am to guess that you are using Microsoft Windows, then you could do worse than try Cygwin or even Microsoft's very own "Services For UNIX".

I have also had great success running UNIX Version 7 on a PDP-11 emulator running on a Linux machine if that is what you mean.
