Varma,

There's a good UNIX comparison at http://www.unixguide.net/unixguide.shtml . It will show you such things as linuxconf etc.

On another note, I'd encourage you to learn the CLI instead of depending on menu systems. It's hard to troubleshoot a problem if you don't understand the OS.

Cheers,

Keith
