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 point-
ing 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(s) specifies the mount point(s) to check for files with
multiple hard links when using the
-m option. Multiple mount points are specified as a
white space separated list.
