in addition to the other suggestions, i recommend a copy of Evi  
Nemeth's "Unix System Administration Handbook" (http://www.admin.com/ 
Pages/USAH.html).  one of the distinguishing features of this book is  
that for each topic it provides configuration examples for several  
different UNIX variants, highlighting the differences and similarities.

the current edition is the Third; you may also be interested in the  
Second edition, which covers some more proprietary UNIX variants.
