Hi Herman,

You may want to try this website from IBM. It has a lot of the manuals
for AIX, including the reference guides.

http://publib16.boulder.ibm.com/pser...base/aix52.htm

These are the US English guides, so you may have to look around for
other languages, if needed.

You can also use the "man" pages if they are installed on your version
of AIX. For example:

# man vi
# man ls
# man mkuser

All three will give you details about the commands or utilities, along
with the flags that are valid for the commands, and an example or two
on how the command can be used.

Steve

Don't know why you want to learn AIX, but AIX has two very powerful user
interfaces.
Use smit (TUI) (or smitty on X11) to administrate your system. You can
also use to learn the commandos with this tool, because you can use f6
to show the executed commando. I recommend it to use, because it do all
jobs aix-like, so you dont mess up /etc with the vi command editor.
If you like a GUI, install the Web-based System Manager (wsm). You cant
administrate the whole system, but it has a fine user interface for some
common problems.

with best regards
