link(1M)                       DG/UX R4.11MU05                      link(1M)


NAME
       link, unlink - exercise link and unlink system calls

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/link file1 file2
       /etc/unlink file

DESCRIPTION
       Link and unlink perform their respective system calls on their
       arguments, abandoning all error checking.  These commands can be
       executed only by a user with appropriate privilege.  For systems
       supporting the DG/UX Capability Option, appropriate privilege is
       defined as having one or more specific capabilities enabled in the
       effective capability set of the user.  See capdefaults(5) for the
       default capabilities for this command.  On systems without the DG/UX
       Capability Option, appropriate privilege means that your process has
       an effective UID of root.  See the appropriateprivilege(5) man page
       for more information.

SEE ALSO
       rm(1), link(2), unlink(2), capdefaults(5), appropriateprivilege(5).

NOTE
       This command will not link directories.  However, it does not return
       an error message if you try to do so.
