search google

The best advice I can give is this:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...+Linux+to+UNIX

You will find a plethora of information. Also, go to these sites as well.

www.ugu.com

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/unix-faq/faq/contents/

http://unix.about.com/

http://www.rootprompt.org/


Try these, you should find some of what you need.

yea it is a homework question.

It looked like homework to me too, but I thought I could help him out and point him in a direction for research purposes without "giving the answer" to him.

Please don't delete this post. It seems like an honest interest in UNIX. I didn't want to stunt their view of UNIX.

Overall Killerserv, you are correct and I agree as well.
