If you're going to claim that you know your way around a command line, and understand the core concepts of Unix, as well as the fundamentals of admining a Unix system. And if you're going to say that you've been using Linux and FreeBSD for a certain length of time, I think you'll be in a good place. You may be surprised at how AIX behaves on a low level, though. Like if you start looking through it's sysctls (does AIX have sysctls?) or if you peruse the /etc directory to see how things get started at boot time. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
