    I take it you would like to learn AIX ? There are some online accounts you can set yourself up for but they do not grant admin access.

    The shells are pretty much the same as on all *nixes, so you can play with Linux or one of the BSDs from that perspective.

    To learn the admin stuff though you are going to need to buy an rs6k (ebay) and put a copy of AIX on it ..

    If you know another Unix then you can compare commands etc on URLhttp://bhami.com/rosetta.htmlURL

    Thank for replay. Reason why I asked is I got job as Junior AIX admistrator and I never try before.
    I know very well CentOs. If I buy that rs6k where can I download AIX ? Or rs6k is ship with AIX?
    Thank you.
