ncheck(8)
NAME
ncheck − generate names from i-numbers
SYNTAX
ncheck [ −i numbers ] [ −a ] [ −s ] filesystem
DESCRIPTION
The ncheck command with no other arguments generates a pathname versus inumber list of all files on the file system. Names of directory files are followed by “.” The −i option reduces the report to only those files whose inumbers 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-userID mode. It is intended to discover concealed violations of security policy.
A file system must be specified.
The report is in no useful order, and probably should be sorted.
DIAGNOSTICS
When the filesystem structure is improper, “??” denotes the “parent” of a parentless file and a pathname beginning with “...” denotes a loop.
