Think having to work on Solaris or Linux when all you have worked on is the Mac OS. To make things easier for the poor admins that have to keep switching OS&#8217;s, Bruce Hamilton has created a site he calls the &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/bhami.com\/rosetta.html\">Rosetta Stone: A Sysadmin&#8217;s Universal Translator<\/a>&#8216;. This site has a list of tasks and the corresponding command that you would have to run for each of the OS&#8217;s. The Stone supports the following OS&#8217;s:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>AIX<\/li>\n<li>A\/UX<\/li>\n<li>DG\/UX<\/li>\n<li>FreeBSD<\/li>\n<li>HP-UX<\/li>\n<li>IRIX<\/li>\n<li>Linux<\/li>\n<li>Mac OS X<\/li>\n<li>NCR Unix<\/li>\n<li>NetBSD<\/li>\n<li>OpenBSD<\/li>\n<li>Reliant<\/li>\n<li>SCO OpenServer<\/li>\n<li>Solaris<\/li>\n<li>SunOS 4<\/li>\n<li>Tru64<\/li>\n<li>Ultrix<\/li>\n<li>UNICOS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>and covers tasks in the following categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>hardware<\/li>\n<li>firmware<\/li>\n<li> devices<\/li>\n<li>disks<\/li>\n<li>kernel<\/li>\n<li>boot<\/li>\n<li>files<\/li>\n<li>networking<\/li>\n<li>security<\/li>\n<li>software<\/li>\n<li>patching, tracing, logging<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Check it out, bookmark it.
