A question for links in Unix
Is there a command that I can list, at once, all the links(path) of a give file ( including hard link and soft link)? If not, can it be down by writing a script? Thanks a lot.
(I know that pwd would only list one path.)

Just to contribute to the forum: through surfing I found a link to download "Unix in a Nutshell" (*.chm) FREE.
I was wondering if I can post that link here.

NAME
list link - Displays a list of all the soft links whose names match the link name that you specify
SYNOPSIS
cdscp list link link-name [with attribute-name = attribute-value]
ARGUMENTS
The full name of a specific soft link. The last simple name can contain wildcard characters. The name of a particular attribute. The
value of a particular attribute.
DESCRIPTION
The list link command displays a list of all the soft links whose names match the link name that you specify. The last simple name can
contain wildcard characters. You can use a with attribute-name = attribute-value clause to limit output only to soft links whose
attributes have values equal to the specified values. A space must precede and follow the = (equals sign). This command does not list the
name of the directory, object entry, or other soft link to which the soft link points.
Privilege Required
You must have read permission to the directory that stores the soft link. If you use a with attribute-name = attribute-value clause in
the command, you also need read or test permission to the selected soft links.
NOTE
This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.
EXAMPLE
The following command displays a list of all the soft links whose names begin with the letter l in the directory /.:/admin. cdscp> list
link /.:/admin/l*
LIST
SOFTLINK /.../abc.com/admin
