You didn't specify the "flavor" of your OS. Although they all have similarities, they're also vastly different.
Start here: http://bhami.com/rosetta.html Buy O'Reilly's "Essential System Administration." Good basic 'NIX book, even if it doesn't answer your specific question, it'll point you in the right direction. Welcome back Ferenc. David A.

I have two questions related to Linux and Solaris... * I need do find memory usage (physical, virtual...) of a particular proccess. PID is given by by "ps", but what aditional parameters I have to provide? At a first glance, output of "man ps" vas confusing... * How do I find computer's configuration - what CPU, numbers of CPUs, clock, amount of memory, number of harddrives, what version of OS, what OS patches are applied...? No, I can't ask sysadmin about that (hard to explain), and, no, I don't have any kind of advanced manuals...
