O'Rielly (www.ora.com) publishes the Usenix set of BSD4.4 manuals. they have been helpful to me in admining BSD systems for about a year now. SysVR4 and SCO are different _enough_ fom BSD that it would be a great supplement to the info available in most sysadmin books (whichgear towards SysV as you noted). i have the SMM inthe 4.4BSD series. it should still be available. jose nazario
