NCHECK(8)               COMMAND REFERENCE               NCHECK(8)



NAME
     ncheck -  generate names from i-numbers

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/ncheck [ -a ] [ -i i-number ...  ]  [ -s ] filesystem

DESCRIPTION
     For most normal file system maintenance, the function of
     ncheck is subsumed by fsck(8).

     With no options ncheck generates a pathname from i-number
     lists of all files on a set of default file systems.  Names
     of directory files are followed by /..

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

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

     -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 filesystem must be specified.

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

RETURN VALUE
     [NO_ERRS]      Command completed without error.

     [USAGE]        Incorrect command line syntax. Execution
                    terminated.

     [NP_WARN]      An error warranting a warning message
                    occurred. Execution continues.

     [NP_ERR]       An error occurred that was not a system
                    error.  Execution terminated.
