hi all

i got a question about hard link of parent directory.

our user complained that the file list in their folder looked funny as
the below.

ls: 0653-345 ./..: Permission denied.
total 1417568
drwxrwxrwx 3 d_prod2 d_prod2 4096 Feb 21 14:52 .

drwxrwxrwx 2 d_prod2 d_prod2 256 Oct 22 2003 lost+found

but if the root user list files in same directory, the output showed up
properly.

any idea?

thanks in advnace,

The user has no right to access the directory upwards .. SCNR

Reasons: Turning on my glasbowl
- The user access the directory via a soft link
- The user has not the right to access the directory up
- A corrupted filesystem
- A NFS mounted FS with wrong security settings on the mount point.
