mvdir(ADM)                      19 June 1992                      mvdir(ADM)


 Name

    mvdir - move a directory

 Syntax

    /etc/mvdir dirname newdirname

 Description

    mvdir moves directories within a filesystem.  The directory (dirname)
    must be a directory.  If there is already a directory or file with the
    same name as newdirname, mvdir fails.

    Neither name may be a subset of the other.  For example, you cannot move
    a directory named /x/y to /x/y/z, and vice versa.
