I don't know if you're up to UNIX internals as well, but if you are, I recommend this book: UNIX Internals -- The New Frontiers by Uresh Vahalia (published by Prentice Hall 1996; ISBN 0-13-101908-2) It compares and analyzes the latest features offered by the most important UNIX systems and variants, including SVR4.x, Solaris, SunOS, Digital UNIX, 4.4BSD (and thus FreeBSD), Mach and OSF/1. best regards, --[ Edwin ]-- -- Edwin H.
