Let's see what we have there - four files with exactly the same name and inode:

# ls -li
total 16

73793642 -rw-r----- 179 backuppc backuppc 46 May 14  2007 attrib

Let's remove "attrib" file:

# rm -f attrib

Ouch:

# ls
ls: attrib: No such file or directory
ls: attrib: No such file or directory
ls: attrib: No such file or directory

When I want to browse the directory i.e. in midnight commander (mc), it shows me three files in red called "?attrib", dated 1 Jan 1970.

Looks like it has unprinting characters.  Try
find . -print0 | xargs -0 rm

Nope, that's something else.
Several files in the same directory which had the same inode number and the same name.


e2fsck comes from e2fsprogs 1.39 - should I try something newer?

It is usually best to use the latest version.

True, but the filesystem check takes 8 hours or so here, so I can't start it unless a disaster happens.
