Hello,
I have been a Macintosh user for many, many years. As you may know the latest MacOS ( OS X ) is UNIX based. (Please see http://www.apple.com/macosx/technologies/inside.html for more information.) Basically, I really have no idea where to start with UNIX...if anyone could take a quick look at the above link and tell me what I need to look into so that I may use this new OS to its fullest potential.
I have heard so much good stuff about UNIX users (especially the part about not getting into wars about who's operating system is the best...I guess you already know...) and would be proud to join.
Thank you all,
Mark
PS At an old job (NORTEL) I used what may have been a type of UNIX...it was called QNX so maybe that will help. Of course NORTEL moved over to Windows and things really went into the crapper!!!

UML_SWITCH(1) General Commands Manual UML_SWITCH(1) NAME
uml_switch -- switch daemon for user-mode Linux SYNOPSIS
uml_switch [-unix control_socket data_socket] [-hub] [-tap tun device] [-compat-v0] [-daemon] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the uml_switch program. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. uml_switch is a daemon for managing a virtual network between user-mode Linux systems, with no connection to the host system's network. It will listen for connections on a pair of UNIX domain sockets, and forward packets between clients which connect to them. OPTIONS
-unix control_socket data_socket Listen on the specified pair of sockets, instead of the defaults. -hub Act like a hub. This means that packets received will be broadcast over all virtual links. The default is to act as a switch, where packets are only sent to the link matching the destination MAC address of the packet. -tap tap device Connect the switch to a dynamically created tap device on the host -compat-v0 Specify control protocol version 0 compatibility. -daemon Run in the background as a daemon.
