What are some good books about A/UX?
Except for Apple’s complete manual set, there are no books specifically about A/UX. (Well, there’s one but it’s most probably out of print. It is most definitely out of date. It’s called “The A/UX Handbook” by Jan Harrington and it’s written for A/UX 2.0). There are some very good books about UNIX in general however. The best of the pack (IHMO) is “UNIX Administration Guide for System V” by Thomas and Farrow. Another good book is the “UNIX System Administration Handbook” by Nemeth, Snyder and Seebass.

For the ‘ksh’ shell, a very good book is “Learning the Korn Shell” by Bill Rosenblatt. O’Reilly and Associates has a wide selection of UNIX-based books. You’re
