Dear,

Recently i've met a weird dir like /rwxrwxrwx.
what's mean "/"
when i changed to this dir using cd command. it shows a message " not found"

Could anyone let me know about this?
Thanks in advance..

 
exactly waht command are you running and exacly what is the output. It would help if we could see somthing like
Code:
root@myserver# ls -al /my/problem/dir
drwxr-xr-x  2 healyc healyc  4096 Jan 12  2006 Desktop
-rw-rw-r--  1 healyc healyc     6 May  3  2006 hello.txt
-rw-rw-r--  1 healyc healyc    14 Nov 20 21:51 one
-rw-rw-r--  1 healyc healyc    10 Jun 28 17:25 output.log
-rw-rw-r--  1 healyc healyc     0 Dec 10 16:00 /rwxrwxrwx

Ceci n'est pas une signature

Seems to me you have a corrupted filesystem.

You could try and unmount the FS, then run a check on it. You need to stop your users and application(s) first though.

[tt]umount /mount/point/of/filesystem
fsck /mount/point/of/filesystem[/tt]

see man pages for umount and fsck for more info.


HTH,
