The other UNIX variants either have something similar, or you can create one quite easily. A "crafted" find command (or a little script) can "exec" a checksum on each file on your system and store the results. Another find command (or another script) can compare the current checksum with what you have in the "results" from the original "scan". This is not perfect, but it will give a good indication of a file being changed or tampered with.
