    I would like to find a file's size (du would be good) and it's location 
on a filesystem as in an offset. So I could zero the file out several times. 
Sure I can use dd and the file's name and zero it out. But I want to go back 
to the location in a hexdump and view what's there. Find it on the MFT 
and/or journal (dealing with ntfs here). And also can you do this with ext 3 
or 4?

Hope I'm clear.

Bill
