Other Undelete an open file

[geek]

Hi.
Is it possible on FreeBSD to recover a file that has been unlinked from the file system but is still having an open file descriptor in some process? At least Linux can do it: Bring back deleted files with lsof.

Until someone answers, yes, but I don't remember how.

With fstat(1) you can get the file's inode, but I don't know how to get the file itself then, probably with fsdb(8), haven't tried though.
