NAME

vhardlinks — checks the consistency of compartment rules for files with multiple hardlinks

SYNOPSIS

vhardlinks [-m mount_point...]

DESCRIPTION

vhardlinks checks the consistency of compartment rules for files that have multiple hard links pointing to them. If a file has multiple hard links, it is possible to create compartment rules such that the file will have conflicting rules controlling access to it.

If you invoke vhardlinks without arguments, a list of mount points is taken from the default file /etc/cmpt/hardlinks/hardlinks.config, which contains a list of system mount points, one per line. If the line is commented with a # or if it is not the absolute path of a mount point, it is skipped.

Output is logged to the /var/adm/syslog/cmpt.log file.

Options

vhardlinks recognizes the following option:

-m mount_point...

Specifies mount points. mount_point specifies the mount points to check for files with multiple hard links when using the -m option. Multiple mount points are specified as a white space separated list.

FILES

/etc/cmpt/hardlinks/hardlinks.config

Default file; a list of system mount points.

/var/adm/syslog/cmpt.log

Log file to which output from vhardlinks is directed.
