Many of the better features of BSD 4.3 UNIX were built into SVR4. Ultrix, SunOS 3.X and 4.X, Solaris 2.x, and SVR4
Solaris - (Sun Microsystems) Sun Unix-based user environment, including the Unix operating system and an X11-based window system. Solaris 1.x is a retroactive (marketing?) name for SunOS4.1.x, a BSD-like version of Unix with some SVR4 features. Solaris 2.x (which is what most people mean by "Solaris") includes SunOS5.x, which is an SVR4-derived Unix.
Come to think of it-Isn't there alot of BSD stuff build into the linux kernel? The GNU System? Isn't there BSD in all unix?
It really does spark the debate on what BSD-derived means, now dosen't it.
I was told Solaris is a combination of BSD and Svr4
