NCHECK[NON-SDF](1M)  —  HP-UX

Series 200, 300, 800 Only

NAME

ncheck − generate names from i-numbers

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

Ncheck with no argument generates a path-name vs. i-number list of all files on the volumes specified by the file /etc/checklist.  Names of directory files are followed by /..  The options are as follows:

−i reduces the report to only those files whose i-numbers are specified on the command line in the numbers list. 

−a allows printing of the names .  and .., which are ordinarily suppressed. 

−s 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. 

SEE ALSO

sort(1), fsck[BFS](1M), fsck[HFS](1M), checklist(4). 

DIAGNOSTICS

When the file system structure is improper, ?? denotes the “parent” of a parentless file and a path-name beginning with ... denotes a loop. 

INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT

8-bit filenames.
