ncheck
PURPOSE
Generates path names from i-numbers.
SYNOPSIS
ncheck [ [-s] [ [-a] [-i[inumber] ] [filelsystem] ]
DESCRIPTION
The ncheck command without any flags writes to standard
output the path name and i-number list for all files in
filesystem.
If you specify an invalid file system, the "??" in the
name stands for the parent of a file system that does not
have a parent. Path names beginning with ... (dot dot
dot) indicate a loop.
FLAGS
-a Lists includes the file names . (dot)
and .. (dot dot).
-i inumber . . . Lists only the file specified by
inumber.
-s Lists only special files and files
with set-user-ID mode.
EXAMPLES
1. To list the i-number and path name of each file in
the default file systems:
ncheck
2. To list all the files in a specified file system:
ncheck -a /
This lists the i-number and path name of each file in
the root file system (/), including the . (dot) and
.. (dot-dot) entries in each directory ("-a").
3. To list the name of a file when you know its
i-number:
ncheck -i 690 357 280 /diskette0
This lists the i-number and path name for every file
in the file system /diskette0 with i-numbers of
"690", "357", or "280". If a file has more than one
link, all of its path names are listed.
4. To list special and set-user-ID files:
ncheck -s /
This lists the i-number and path name for every file
in the root file system that is a special file (also
called a device file) or that has set-user-ID mode
enabled.
