mvdir(1M)                                                         mvdir(1M)


   NAME
         mvdir - move a directory

   SYNOPSIS
         /usr/sbin/mvdir dirname  name

   DESCRIPTION
         mvdir moves directories within a file system.  dirname must be a
         directory.  If name does not exist, it will be created as a
         directory.  If name does exist, and is a directory, dirname will be
         created as name/dirname.  dirname and name may not be on the same
         path; that is, one may not be subordinate to the other.  For example:

                 mvdir x/y x/z

         is legal, but

                 mvdir x/y x/y/z

         is not.

   SEE ALSO
         mkdir(1), mv(1) in the User's Reference Manual.

   WARNINGS
         Only the super-user can use mvdir.
