re-linking hard links
...ates of the others. I would like to re-link all of the
duplicates to point to a single inode. For instance if file1 has
hardlinks link1 and link2, and file2 has hardlinks link3 and link4, I
need to change it so that link1, link2 (these two are already correct),
file2, link3, and link4 are all hardinks to file1. The only
information I have to start with are the inode numbers of file1 and
file2 and the pathnames of file1 and file2.
Any ideas beyond searching all of the filenames on the system and
replacing them with the proper link? That takes a long time.
thanks,
Dan
