Hi all,
I am interested in your opinions of the best way to get hands-on security experience with AIX. I am proficient with most linux flavors on intel, but need to get familiar with AIX.

DESCRIPTION
paplay is a simple tool for playing back audio files on a PulseAudio sound server. It understands all audio file formats supported by lib-
sndfile.
OPTIONS -h | --help
Show help.
--version
Show version information.
-v | --verbose
Enable verbose operation. Dumps the current playback time to STDERR during playback.

-n | --client-name=NAME

--stream-name=NAME

--volume=VOLUME
Specify the initial playback volume to use. Choose a value between 0 (silent) and 65536 (100% volume).
--channel-map=CHANNELMAP
Explicitly choose a channel map when playing back this stream. The argument should be a comma separated list of channel names:
front-left, front-right, mono, front-center, rear-left, rear-right, rear-center, lfe, front-left-of-center, front-right-of-center,
side-left, side-right, top-center, top-front-center, top-front-left, top-front-right, top-rear-left, top-rear-right, top-rear-cen-
ter, or any of the 32 auxiliary channel names aux0 to aux31.
LIMITATIONS
Due to a limitation in libsndfile paplay currently does not always set the correct channel mapping for playback of multichannel (i.e. sur-
round) audio files, even if the channel mapping information is available in the audio file.
