Hi
is there a command for listing all the links pointing to a specific file??
For eg. i have abc.so file in /usr
and there is a symbolic link to this abc.so in /home say mylink
and another symbolic link to the same abc.so in /opt say mylink2
i need a command mycmd such that
if i type mycmd /usr/abc.so
then it should give output as
/usr/abc.so <-- /home/mylink
/usr/abc.so <-- /opt/mylink2
Thanks
