ncheck(1M)                                             ncheck(1M)



     NAME
          ncheck - generate names from i-numbers

     SYNOPSIS
          /etc/ncheck [-a] [-i numbers] [-s] [file-system]

     DESCRIPTION
          Note: For most normal file system maintenance, the function
          of ncheck is subsumed by fsck(1M).

          ncheck with no argument generates a path name vs. i-number
          list of all files on a set of default file systems.  Names
          of directory files are followed by /..  The -i option
          reduces the report to only those files whose i-numbers
          follow.  The -a option allows printing of the names . and
          .., which are ordinarily suppressed.  The -s option reduces
          the report to special files and files with set-user-ID mode;
          it is intended to discover concealed violations of security
          policy.

          A file system may be specified.

          The report is in no useful order, and probably should be
          sorted.

     EXAMPLE
               ncheck /dev/rdisk1

          will report the pathnames and i-numbers of files on the
          specified device.

     FILES
          /etc/ncheck

     SEE ALSO
          fsck(1M), sort(1).

     DIAGNOSTICS
          When the file system structure is improper, ?? denotes the
          ``parent'' of a parentless file and a path name beginning
          with ... denotes a loop.
