ncheck_hfs: ncheck - generate a list of path names from inode numbers
for a HFS file system
SYNOPSIS
inode-numbers] [special ...]
DESCRIPTION
when invoked without arguments, generates a list of path names corre‐
sponding to the inode numbers of all files contained on the HFS file
systems listed in If special is specified, ncheck reports on the spe‐
cial only. Path names generated by are relative to the given special.
Names of directory files are followed by
Options
Allow printing of the names
and which are ordinarily suppressed.
Specify the HFS file system type.
Report only on files whose inode numbers
are specified on the command line, in inode-num‐
bers. inode-numbers is a comma separated list of
inode numbers.
Report only on special files
and regular files with set-user-ID mode. The
option is intended to discover concealed viola‐
tions of security policy.
Echo the completed command line, but performs no other action.
The command line is generated by incorporating
the user-specified options and other information
derived from This option allows the user to ver‐
ify the command line.
Report only on files using sector numbers
specified on the command line in sector_ranges.
sector_ranges is a comma separated list of sector
ranges. A sector range is a starting sector num‐
ber and an ending sector number separated by a
dash, or just a sector number. The sector num‐
bers should be in DEV_BSIZE units. If no path‐
name contains the sector number it will be
reported as free or containing file system struc‐
ture. Sectors beyond the end of the file system
will be reported as illegal.
Access Control Lists
Continuation inodes (that is, inodes containing additional access con‐
trol list information) are quietly skipped since they do not correspond
to any path name.
EXAMPLES
Execute the command on all special in
Execute the command on HFS file system
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES

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