NAME

       ntfscluster - identify files in a specified region of an NTFS volume.

SYNOPSIS

       ntfscluster [options] device

DESCRIPTION

       ntfscluster has three modes of operation: info, sector and cluster.

   Info
       The  default mode, info is currently not implemented.  It will display general information
       about the NTFS volume when it is working.

   Sector
       The sector mode will display a list of files that have data  in  the  specified  range  of
       sectors.

   Cluster
       The  cluster  mode  will  display a list of files that have data in the specified range of
       clusters.  When the cluster size is one sector, this will be equivalent to the sector mode
       of operation.

OPTIONS

       Below  is  a summary of all the options that ntfscluster accepts.  Nearly all options have
       two equivalent names.  The short name is preceded by - and the long name  is  preceded  by
       --.  Any single letter options, that don't take an argument, can be combined into a single
       command, e.g.  -fv is equivalent to -f -v.  Long named options can be abbreviated  to  any
       unique prefix of their name.

       -c, --cluster RANGE
              Any files whose data is in this range of clusters will be displayed.

       -F, --filename NAME
              Show information about this file.

       -f, --force
              This  will  override  some  sensible  defaults,  such as not working with a mounted
              volume.  Use this option with caution.

       -h, --help
              Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.

       -I, --inode NUM
              Show information about this inode.

       -i, --info
              This option is not yet implemented.

       -q, --quiet
              Reduce the amount of output to a minimum.  Naturally,  it  doesn't  make  sense  to
              combine this option with --verbose

       -s, --sector RANGE
              Any files whose data is in this range of sectors will be displayed.

       -v, --verbose
              Increase the amount of output that ntfscluster prints.

       -V, --version
              Show the version number, copyright and license for ntfscluster.

EXAMPLES

       Get some information about the volume /dev/hda1.

              ntfscluster /dev/hda1

       Look for files in the first 500 clusters of /dev/hda1.

              ntfscluster -c 0-500 /dev/hda1

BUGS

       The  info  mode  isn't implemented yet.  ntfscluster is quite limited, but it has no known
       bugs.  If you find a bug please send an email describing the problem  to  the  development
       team:
       ntfs-3g-devel@lists.sf.net
