list of man pages
If you can access a system, you can go to /usr/share/man on most boxes and there are several sub-directories that contain the actual man pages.
Here is one page for LINUX. Click on the one that says "Section 0: Everything"
http://linux.ctyme.com/
Here is another google search.

Remember, Every version of UNIX has unique commands that may not be in another version. So look for your preferred version. Although, most commands will be the same across all UNIX flavors.
