How to unmount a folder and do check disk only in that path
I need to check if a folder has some kind of logic disk problems.
I have a FreeBSD machine where the (root)\tmp\TEST folder has some file created by a script that i cannot delete.
If i rename the tmp\TEST folder then i can delete them (apparently) but if i recreate a folder in tmp directory with the same name 'TEST' the files 'magically' reappears.
So i need to unmount the folder and do a checkdisk but only in this folder (as the machine is actually hosting a firewall system and i want to be sure to not compromise the other files in the system).
As i'm really at first step in linux/freebsd command learning:
how can i unmount the folder tmp and how can i do a checkdisk only in tmp folder?

NAME
mhpath - print full pathnames of MH messages and folders (only available within the message handling system, mh)
SYNOPSIS
mhpath [+foldername] [msgs] [-help]
OPTIONS
Prints a list of the valid options to this command.
DESCRIPTION
Use the mhpath command to display the full pathname of the specified folder. If you do not specify a folder, mhpath displays the pathname

If you specify a message with its message number, mhpath displays the pathname of the specified message. You can also specify a number of
messages, or a range of messages. If the top of the range that you specify is greater than the last message in the folder, mhpath displays
as much of the specified range as possible.
Additionally mhpath can take a keyword or a sequence name. The following keywords are acceptable: The first message in the folder. The
last message in the folder. The message after the last message in the folder. You cannot use new as part of a message range. The current
message in the folder. The message before the current message. The message after the current message. All of the messages in the folder.
