<p>Can you do a<br>
ls -l<br>
on the directory(s) in question and post that? The permissions on and in the directory(s).</p>
<p>Permissions can have some interesting knock ons.<br>
I believe It is possible to have permission to read from a directory you don't have permission to browse.</p>

Hi,<br>
<br>
On a server where<br>
<br>
ls: cannot open directory /home: Permission denied<br>
<br>
I can instead get a listing by using autocompletion. For instance, to<br>
get a listing of contents beginning with a in the /home directory:<br>
<br>
~a<br>
<br>
followed by tab-tab.<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>
