NCHECK(ADM)                        UNIX System V



     Name
          ncheck - generates names from inode numbers


     Syntax
          /etc/ncheck [ -i numbers ]  [ -a ] [ -s ]  [ filesystem ]


     Description
          ncheck with no  argument  generates  a  pathname  and  inode
          number  list  of  all  files  on  the  set  of  file systems
          specified in /etc/mnttab.  The  two  characters  ``/.''  are
          appended to the names of directory files.

          The options are as follows:

          -i   limits the report to only those files  whose  i-numbers
               follow.

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

          -s   limits the report to special files and files with  set-
               user-ID  mode.   This  option  may  be  used  to detect
               violations of security policy.

          A single filesystem may be specified rather than the default
          list of mounted file systems.


     Files
          /etc/mnttab

     Diagnostics
          When the file system structure is improper, ??  denotes  the
          ``parent''  of  a  parentless  file and a pathname beginning
          with ... denotes a loop.


     Notes
          See Notes under mount(ADM).

          The directory /etc/fscmd.d/TYPE contains programs  for  each
          file system type; ncheck invokes the appropriate binary.
