Mark,

Go a directory above where you're at and ls -l to see what privileges are on
the directory in question. You might also then change the privileges by
doing something like chmod -Rf 777 dir/ Of course, this gives all rights to
everyone.

This is getting evn *more* twisted.
I did a "ls -R" to see just what "directories" *it* would find.
It found one called "config". And I *can* "cd" to it.
But "ls -a" shows NO such dir.
It *does* show a "configs".
But I can't "cd" to that one.
This is sick.
