[comp.unix.ultrix] UNIX courses?

matheson@decus.com.au (01/17/91)

	Can anyone recommend a good course in UNIX/ULTRIX for VMS and non-VMS
users? Preferably based in Melbourne, Victoria.
	Any comments/suggestions are welcomed.

The DEC courses are pretty good. Utilities & Commands is pretty much on par
with the VMS offering. System Management covers the whole gamut fairly well
also. I did System Management in Sydney, and know they offer U&C and SM in
Melbourne as well. Consult EDU.

I know the DEC trainers try to avoid comparing VMS with Ultrix in the courses,
but they will give equivalents if needed. The "Unix for VMS Users" book is
reasonably good - but they have gone for straight command equivalence rather
than conceptual. And I NEVER user runoff anyway so why tell me the unix
equivalences !!

Now for my question: When is DEC going to get off its butt and offer Ultrix
Internals in Australasia. I can't afford to go to Boston (and I don't really
fancy flying into the States just at the moment)
