... I have an application which tells me only the inode number of a file it is having problems with. Is there any way to get the path and filename from the inode number? ... You can get _a_ path (there may be many), but it is work. - Start at the root of the volume. - Loop through all entries in the directory - See if you found your inode. - If it's a directory, recurse on it Note that the same inode may appear in multiple directories (assuming that its the inode of a file rather than directory). Also, with soft links, there may be many ways of entering any given path. Craig
