Sys V or BSD derivated UNIX
I read it was possible to distinguish if UNIX system on the machine is derivated from Sys V or BSD. The instruction said:
ps -ef ... is functional on Sys V
ps ax ... is functional on BSD
But since I don't have any UNIX machine (just Linux) I can't tell how I may use this knowledge in my script.
My idea is that ps -ef returns non-zero exit code on BSD and ps ax returns non-zero exit code on Sys V.
Is my idea right?
Thank you
(it's a question rather more theoretical than practical, I need it to school)

net::server::log::sys::syslog5.18
Net::Server::Log::Sys::Syslog(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::Server::Log::Sys::Syslog(3)
NAME
Net::Server::Log::Sys::Syslog - log via Syslog
SYNOPSIS
use base qw(Net::Server::PreFork);
__PACKAGE__->run(
log_file => 'Sys::Syslog',
syslog_ident => 'myapp',
);
DESCRIPTION
This module provides Sys::Syslog logging to the Net::Server system.
CONFIGURATION
log_file
To begin using Sys::Syslog logging, simply set the Net::Server log_file configuration parameter to "Sys::Syslog".
If the magic name "Sys::Syslog" is used, all logging will take place via the Sys::Syslog module. If syslog is used the parameters
"syslog_logsock", "syslog_ident", and "syslog_logopt",and "syslog_facility" may also be defined.
syslog_logsock
Only available if "log_file" is equal to "Sys::Syslog". May be either unix, inet, native, console, stream, udp, or tcp, or an arrayref
of the types to try. Default is "unix" if the version of Sys::Syslog < 0.15 - otherwise the default is to not call setlogsock.
See Sys::Syslog.
syslog_ident
Only available if "log_file" is equal to "Sys::Syslog". Id to prepend on syslog entries. Default is "net_server". See Sys::Syslog.
syslog_logopt
Only available if "log_file" is equal to "Sys::Syslog". May be either zero or more of "pid","cons","ndelay","nowait". Default is
"pid". See Sys::Syslog.
syslog_facility
Only available if "log_file" is equal to "Sys::Syslog". See Sys::Syslog and syslog. Default is "daemon".
DEFAULT ARGUMENTS FOR Net::Server
The following arguments are available in the default "Net::Server" or "Net::Server::Single" modules. (Other personalities may use
additional parameters and may optionally not use parameters from the base class.)
Key Value Default
## syslog parameters (if log_file eq Sys::Syslog)
syslog_logsock (native|unix|inet|udp
|tcp|stream|console) unix (on Sys::Syslog < 0.15)
syslog_ident "identity" "net_server"
syslog_logopt (cons|ndelay|nowait|pid) pid
syslog_facility w+ daemon
METHODS
"initialize"
This method is called during the initilize_logging method of Net::Server. It returns a single code ref that will be stored under the
log_function property of the Net::Server object. That code ref takes log_level and message as arguments and calls the initialized
log4perl system.
"handle_log_error"
This method is called if the log_function fails for some reason. It is passed the Net::Server object, the error that occurred while
logging and an arrayref containing the log level and the message. In turn, this calls the legacy Net::Server::handle_syslog_error
method.
