bash shell scripting

Hi,

i am new to UNIX. I have couple of basic questions.
1. Is the syntax for BASH shell programming same in the LINUX and SUN SOLARIS operating systems?
2. I have to work on BASH shell programming in SUN SOLARIS operating system. I am going through the documentation from the following links,

http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO...tro-HOWTO.html
http://www.faqs.org/docs/bashman/bashref_toc.html

I have a doubt that i am in a right track or not?

Any help in this regard will be highly appriciated.

Regards,
Azaz Ali.

bash syntax will be the same both places - Linux & Solaris.

What varies are what versions (ie., functionality) of a few common utilities like awk.
