ls -i one_hard_link
df one_hard_link -> get the last column: Mounted on (eg: /var)
find /var -xdev -inum inum_of_one_hard_link_from_ls -print
(or on any 4.4BSD-derived system?)
find -x /var -inum ...

And of course, from the ls -l list, the number after the permissions is the
number of hard links of this file.

Bye, Gabor
