shall i accept the interview ?
We could open up a poll here for you.. seriously: That is something you have to decide for your own.

if i pass the interview and i'm hired shall i accept the position?
Another poll? Smilie If you do not like to pretend things and get remorse, that can be bad. On the other hand don't show up with that "I am unworthy!" look in your eyes.

Quote:
what is the popular AIX interview questions ?
Too many posibilities in my eyes to write them down here.

Quote:
can i map solaris/linux experience easily to AIX ?
No - but you have a good base to build on. You should not pretend stuff about AIX knowledge just to get the job. Maybe tell them you are open for new stuff and like to learn. Else you might also get trouble with new coworkers if they notice you know about nothing on AIX.

Quote:
any quick resources to get on track within few days ?
Hm hardly. Best would be to have access to AIX and try out stuff and get used to the "other" commands, etc.

Far too much documentation to read it all up. It does not make up for experience.

NAME
lessecho - expand metacharacters SYNOPSIS
lessecho [-ox] [-cx] [-pn] [-dn] [-mx] [-nn] [-ex] [-a] file ... DESCRIPTION
lessecho is a program that simply echos its arguments on standard output. But any metacharacter in the output is preceded by an "escape" character, which by default is a backslash. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. -ex Specifies "x", rather than backslash, to be the escape char for metachars. If x is "-", no escape char is used and arguments con- taining metachars are surrounded by quotes instead. -ox Specifies "x", rather than double-quote, to be the open quote character, which is used if the -e- option is specified. -cx Specifies "x" to be the close quote character. -pn Specifies "n" to be the open quote character, as an integer. -dn Specifies "n" to be the close quote character, as an integer. -mx Specifies "x" to be a metachar. By default, no characters are considered metachars. -nn Specifies "n" to be a metachar, as an integer. -fn Specifies "n" to be the escape char for metachars, as an integer. -a Specifies that all arguments are to be quoted. The default is that only arguments containing metacharacters are quoted SEE ALSO
