Difference in administration
I have been working on Sun Solaris since 2.6 and now on 9. I have an opportunity to accept a position working on HPUX and AIX. From a administration point of view. What are the major differences of the unix flavors. Solaris - HPUX and Solaris to AIX. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

ssignal
GSIGNAL(3) Linux Programmer's Manual GSIGNAL(3)
NAME
gsignal, ssignal - software signal facility
SYNOPSIS
#include <signal.h>
typedef void (*sighandler_t)(int);
int gsignal(signum);
sighandler_t ssignal(int signum, sighandler_t action);
DESCRIPTION
Don't use these functions under Linux. Due to a historical mistake, under Linux these functions are aliases for raise() and signal(),
respectively.
Elsewhere, on SYSV-like systems, these functions implement software signalling, entirely independent of the classical signal and kill func-
tions. The function ssignal() defines the action to take when the software signal with number signum is raised using the function gsig-
nal(), and returns the previous such action or SIG_DFL. The function gsignal() does the following: if no action (or the action SIG_DFL)
was specified for signum, then it does nothing and returns 0. If the action SIG_IGN was specified for signum, then it does nothing and
returns 1. Otherwise, it resets the action to SIG_DFL and calls the action function with parameter signum, and returns the value returned
by that function. The range of possible values signum varies (often 1-15 or 1-17).
CONFORMING TO
SVID2, XPG2. These functions are available under AIX, DG-UX, HPUX, SCO, Solaris, Tru64. They are called obsolete under most of these sys-
tems, and are broken under Linux libc and glibc. Some systems also have gsignal_r() and ssignal_r().
