[see intro(1M) and contents(0)]

/usr/ system software directory
bin/ directory of utility programs
catman/ directory of on-line manual pages for man(1)

release/ directory for release notices and system file lists
sbin/ directory of utility programs
init.d directory containing scripts for rc.d

setup.d directory containing setup scripts
sde/ software development environment directory
tmp symbolic link to /var/tmp (a multilevel directory)
/var/ directory to contain various writable directories
adm/ directory for administrative information
acct/ system accounting data files
log/ directory containing sysadm logs - must be
a multilevel directory
cron/ directory to store cron log files

preserve/ directory where editor temporary files are
preserved after crashes or hangups - must be a
multilevel directory

execution files
cron/ used to store cron related files and data
lp/ store print jobs and information from lp
mqueue/ store mail failure information
uucp/ work files and staging area for uucp(1)
tmp/ directory to avoid writing temporary files to the /
and /usr file systems - must be multilevel
For lists of files installed with the system, see the .fl files in
/usr/release. For information about specific files, see the FILES
subsection of the pertinent man page.
When you are searching for information but do not know the man page
name, the apropos command can be useful. For example:
apropos uucp
