Karl Harrison September 2004 Introduction to UNIX Karl Harrison September 2004

The UNIX Operating System An operating system (or "OS") is a set of programs that controls a computer It controls both the hardware (things you can touch—such as keyboards, displays, and disk drives) software (application programs that you run, such as a word processor).

The UNIX Operating System Some computers have a single-user OS, which means only one person can use the computer at a time. They can also do only one job at a time. But if it has a multiuser, multitasking operating system like UNIX. Then these powerful OSes can let many people use the computer at the same time and let each user run several jobs at once.

Versions of UNIX Now there are many different versions of UNIX. At first there were two main versions: The line of UNIX releases that started at AT&T (the latest is System V Release 4), And from the University of California at Berkeley (the latest version is BSD 4.4).

Versions of UNIX Now commercial versions include SunOS, Solaris, SCO UNIX, SG IRIX, AIX, HP/UX The freely available versions include Linux and FreeBSD 5.2 (based on 4.4BSD) Many Versions of Linux - Redhat, Fedroa, Debian, SuSE and MandrakeSoft Apple Mac OS X (FreeBSD 5.2)
