Let's get this straight right now, Linux is not "Unix Based" it is "Unix Compliant (or compatible)" If it was "Unix Based" it would not be opensource, Linus Torvalds wrote Linux from scratch to be Unix compatible, but all the source code was his (and some contributors from the net) nothing was taken as such from Unix.... Hope this helps you understand...
