You can use the 'find' command and tell it to only process files of type
"symbolic link."

eg.:

find /tmp/ -type l -exec ls -l {} \;

which would start from the /tmp directory, look for symbolic links, and
execute "ls -l" on the filenames it finds.  You could, of course, eliminate
the last part if you only wanted to know what the filenames were and get

find /tmp/ -type l

(I believe it's the same as using '-print' instead of '-exec [command]')

Beware of output to stderr (if you don't have permission to read a directory,
you'll get errors) getting interspersed.
