I have at various times in the past 2 years used or administered 
Linux, Solaris, Irix and HP-UX and I have found that there is little 
difference in file locations and a couple of commands from a user's 
perspective.  The location of system files may be differ from BSD 
based systems to SysV based systems.  However most of them can be 
located with man so you are unlikely to be lost.
