|
|
|
|
|
The
|
1998-06-30 06:18:44 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1997-03-23 20:08:22 +00:00
|
|
|
command installs random generation numbers on all the inodes for
|
|
|
|
|
each filesystem specified on the command line by
|
|
|
|
|
.Ar special .
|
|
|
|
|
This increases the security of NFS-exported filesystems by making
|
|
|
|
|
it difficult to ``guess'' filehandles.

|
1997-03-23 20:08:22 +00:00
|
|
|
.Xr newfs 8
|
|
|
|
|
now does the equivalent of
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1997-03-27 00:27:50 +00:00
|
|
|
itself so it is no longer necessary to
|
1997-03-23 20:08:22 +00:00
|
|
|
run
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
|
by hand on a new filesystem. It is only used to
|
|
|
|
|
re-randomize or report on an existing filesystem.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm Fsirand
|
|
|
|
|
should only be used on an unmounted filesystem that
|
|
|
|
|
has been checked with
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr fsck 8
|
|
|
|
|
or a filesystem that is mounted read-only.
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm Fsirand
|
|
|
|
|
may be used on the root filesystem in single-user mode
|
|
|
|
|
but the system should be rebooted via ``reboot -n'' afterwards.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
|
|
|
The available options are as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
.It Fl b
|
1997-03-24 20:50:57 +00:00
|
|
|
Use the default block size (usually 512 bytes) instead
|
1997-03-23 20:08:22 +00:00
|
|
|
of the value gleaned from the disklabel.
|
|
|
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
|
|
|
Force
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
|
to run even if the filesystem on
|
|
|
|
|
.Ar special
|
|
|
|
|
is not marked as clean.
|
|
|
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
|
|
|
Print the current generation numbers for all inodes instead of
|
|
|
|
|
generating new ones.
|
|
|
|
|
.Sh CAVEATS
|
|
|
|
|
Since
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
|
allocates enough memory to hold all the inodes in
|
1997-06-16 06:54:30 +00:00
|
|
|
a given cylinder group it may use a large amount
|
1997-03-23 20:08:22 +00:00
|
|
|
of memory for large disks with few cylinder groups.
