As a side note, the Berkeley version of some Unix programs could be found in /usr/ucb on Solaris (ucb = University of California, Berkeley):


Code:
bash-3.2$ uname -sr; /usr/ucb/ps -x
SunOS 5.10
   PID TT       S  TIME COMMAND
 18261 ?        S  0:00 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
 18270 pts/4    S  0:00 -ksh
 18296 pts/4    S  0:00 bash
 18446 pts/4    O  0:00 /usr/ucb/ps -x

Code:
SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands                   ps(1B)

NAME
     ps - display the status of current processes

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/ucb/ps [-aceglnrSuUvwx] [-t term] [num]

DESCRIPTION
     The ps command displays information  about  processes.  Nor-
     mally,  only  those  processes  that  are  running with your
     effective user ID and are attached to a controlling terminal
     (see    termio(7I))  are  shown.  Additional  categories  of
     processes can be added to the display using various options.
     In particular, the -a option allows you to include processes
     that are not owned by you (that do not have your  user  ID),
     and  the  -x  option allows you to include processes without
     controlling terminals. When you specify both -a and -x,  you
     get processes owned by anyone, with or without a controlling
     terminal. The -r option  restricts  the  list  of  processes
     printed to running and runnable processes.

kill

KILL(1)                                                            User Commands                                                           KILL(1)

NAME

       kill - send a signal to a process

SYNOPSIS

       kill [options] <pid> [...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  default  signal  for kill is TERM.  Use -l or -L to list available signals.  Particularly useful signals include HUP, INT, KILL, STOP,
       CONT, and 0.  Alternate signals may be specified in three ways: -9, -SIGKILL or -KILL.  Negative PID values may be  used  to  choose  whole
       process  groups;  see  the  PGID  column  in ps command output.  A PID of -1 is special; it indicates all processes except the kill process
       itself and init.

OPTIONS

       <pid> [...]
              Send signal to every <pid> listed.

       -<signal>
       -s <signal>
       --signal <signal>
              Specify the signal to be sent.  The signal can be specified by using name or number.  The behavior of signals is explained  in  sig-
              nal(7) manual page.

       -l, --list [signal]
              List signal names.  This option has optional argument, which will convert signal number to signal name, or other way round.

       -L, --table
              List signal names in a nice table.

       NOTES  Your shell (command line interpreter) may have a built-in kill command.  You may need to run the command described here as /bin/kill
              to solve the conflict.

EXAMPLES

       kill -9 -1
              Kill all processes you can kill.

       kill -l 11
              Translate number 11 into a signal name.

       kill -L
              List the available signal choices in a nice table.

       kill 123 543 2341 3453
              Send the default signal, SIGTERM, to all those processes.

SEE ALSO

       kill(2), killall(1), nice(1), pkill(1), renice(1), signal(7), skill(1)

STANDARDS

       This command meets appropriate standards. The -L flag is Linux-specific.

AUTHOR

       Albert Cahalan <albert@users.sf.net> wrote kill in 1999 to replace a bsdutils one that was not standards  compliant.   The  util-linux  one
       might also work correctly.
