I know, rediculous answering my own questions on the list with yet more questions, but could this possibly be attributed to an inode mismatch after mounting that drive? Unfortunately this was all brought to my attention, and I'm out in the dark with no details about what exactly was done. I was just told about the dirs being moved around for lack of disk space. Course we all get to come home from fixing problems at work to yet more problems at home <g>

If you get this in response to a plain 'ls' command, it indicates that your filesystem is completely corrupted.



ls: 1048649483.25292.isis.glizard.com: No such file or directory
ls: 1048655245.17196.isis.glizard.com: No such file or directory
ls: 1048655682.19088.isis.glizard.com: No such file or directory

drwx------    5 vpopmail vchkpw       4096 Jan 22 16:24 ..

Now if this is an inode issue, i'm ignorant about what to do to fix it, e2fsck would seem logical but irrelevant in the sense.

What exactly is "logical but irrelevant" about fixing a corrupted filesystem?
