valid_link(4)            Driver Applies             valid_link(4)

NAME
     valid_link - controls the use of link(3)

SYNOPSIS
     int valid_link( string from, string to );

DESCRIPTION
     The driver calls valid_link(from, to) in the  master  object
     from  inside  the link(from, to) efunction.  If valid_link()
     returns 0, then  the  link()  will  fail.   If  valid_link()
     returns  1,  then the link(3) will succeed if rename() would
     succeed if called with the same arguments.

SEE ALSO
     link(3)
