The way the question is formed, I believe http://docs.sun.com is a good
start.

You should ask at either ntua.ugrads or ntua.comp.linux

Not a web site or an ebook, but I recommend Solaris Systems
Programming. Naturally, I'm justa little bit biased because
I wrote it, but nearly all reviews I've seen of it are overwhelmingly
positive (e.g., www.cuddletech.com/articles/ssp_review).
You can read more info about it, including a complete sample
chapter, from www.rite-group.com/rich/ssp

Rich,
Your book is a fine piece of work for someone who wants to learn! The
difference is that he wants his (home)work done. I've directed him to
the appropriate NTUA newsgroup where someone will explain the netiquette
:-)

Maybe the title of my post is incorrect. I don't look for someone to get
my (home)work done. I just search for some reference(ebook or site) that
i will STUDY in order to do MYSELF my (home)work.
As you probably know yiorgos, when you take the course "operating
systems" at the national technical university of Athens, you don't get a
book, which can help you do the laboratory assignments(as far as i know,
mostly they have to do with unix system programming). So, you have to
look for it on your own.That's what i'm doing!

matter than Unix programming in General ]

No I DO NOT KNOW because I have the same age as your Prof. Which means
that I was unfortunate enough to study EMPIX[1] which (at the time) was
even less than a toy OS (and I happen to know the people who even wrote
EMPIX 2.0).
So, in fact if you are working on Solaris the best free resource is
really <URL:http://docs.sun.com/>. OTOH, if you are working on Linux,
you should look at the relevant titles at <URL:http://www.ora.com/catalog/>.
The best books I have read on the subject (and keep in mind this was 10
years ago) were:
1. The Magic Garden Explained - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...414544?v=glance
2. Lion's Commentary on Unix 6th Edition - http://www.peer-to-peer.com/catalog/opsrc/lions.html
3. The Design and Implementation of the 4.4BSD Operating System - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...414544?v=glance
Keep in mind that #3 has been superseeded by:
4. The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System - http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...=glance&s=books
All these books can be found at the NTUA library.

[1] EMPIX was an effort for an educational Operating System that was
started in the 1980s at NTUA. I think it really died at 1996.
