Yep, looks good (I'm a SQL7/2000 DBA).

"INNER JOIN" etc.. is not SQL Server specific, It's just ANSI standard.

If you have.....
select col1,col2,col3
from table1 inner join table2 on table1.id=table2.id

you can then change this to the following to get it to work on Oracle....

select col1,col2,col3
from table1, table2
where table1.id=table2.id

In short, a Micro$oft T-SQL "inner join" is a PL/SQL regular "join". So (making a few assumptions about the structure of the tables), here is my crack at a rewrite:

select KO.KS_KNOWLEDGEOBJECTID
  from KS_KNOWLEDGEOBJECT KO
 where KO.KS_AVAILABLE = 0
   and not exists (select CS.KS_KNOWLEDGEOBJECTID

                     from KS_CONCEPTSTRING CS
                        , KS_CONCEPT C
                    where CS.KS_CONCEPTID = C.KS_CONCEPTID
                      and KO.KS_KNOWLEDGEOBJECTID = CS.KS_KNOWLEDGEOBJECTID
                      and C.KS_CONCEPTTYPEID = '2');
