NAME
      ff - list file names and statistics for a file system
 


SYNOPSIS
      ff  [  -F FSType  ]   [  -V  ]   [  generic_options   ]    [
      -o specific_options ]  special ...
 


DESCRIPTION
      ff prints the pathnames and inode numbers of  files  in  the
      file  system  which  resides  on the special device special.
      Other information about  the  files  may  be  printed  using
      options  described below.  Selection criteria may be used to
      instruct  ff to only print information for certain files. If
      no  selection  criteria  are  specified, information for all
      files considered will  be  printed  (the  default);  the  -i
      option  may be used to limit files to those whose inodes are
      specified.
 
      Output is sorted in  ascending  inode  number  order.    The
      default line produced by ff is:
 
           path-name i-number
 
 
      The maximum information the command will provide is:
 
           path-name i-number size uid
 
 


OPTIONS
      -F    Specify the  FSType on which to operate.  The   FSType
            should  either  be  specified  here or be determinable
            from  /etc/vfstab by matching  the   special  with  an
            entry in the table, or by consulting /etc/default/fs.
 
      -V    Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the
            command.  The  command  line is generated by using the
            options and arguments provided by the user and  adding
            to  them  information  derived from  /etc/vfstab. This
            option may be used to verify and validate the  command
            line.
 
      generic_options
            Options that are  supported  by  most  FSType-specific
            modules  of  the  command.   The following options are
            available:
 
            -I    Do not print the i-node number after  each  path
                  name.
 
            -l    Generate a supplementary list of all path  names
                  for multiply-linked files.

            -p prefix
                  The specified prefix will be added to each  gen-
                  erated path name. The default is `.' (dot).
 
            -s    Print the file size, in bytes, after  each  path
                  name.
 
            -u    Print the owner's login  name  after  each  path
                  name.
 
            -a -n Select if the file has been accessed in n days.
 
            -m -n Select if the file has been written  or  created
                  in n days.
 
            -c -n Select if file's status has been  changed  in  n
                  days.
 
            -n file
                  Select  if  the  file  has  been  modified  more
                  recently than the argument file.
 
            -i i-node-list
                  Generate names for only those i-nodes  specified
                  in i-node-list. i-node-list is a list of numbers
                  separated  by  commas   (with   no   intervening
                  spaces).
 
 
      -o    Specify  FSType-specific options in a comma  separated
            (without  spaces)  list  of  suboptions  and  keyword-
            attribute pairs  for  interpretation  by  the  FSType-
            specific module of the command.
