    <p>On a server when I type in <code>ls -al</code> I get a list of the directories </p> <pre><code>-bash-3.2$ ls -al total 12 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 13 2011 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 11 2011 .. drwxr-xr-x 55 torg torg 4096 May 15 05:40 stuff </code></pre> <p>However I happen to know that there are more directories pressent, because when I type <code>cd loourr</code> and then go back <code>cd ..</code> I find myself with </p> <pre><code>-bash-3.2$ ls -al total 32 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 13 2011 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 11 2011 .. drwxr-xr-x 55 torg torg 4096 May 15 05:40 torg drwxr-xr-x 108 loourr loourr 20480 Jan 29 19:48 loourr </code></pre> <p>Why is this? I was under the impression that the <code>-a</code> flag reveals all directories. What could be causing this, and how can I reveal directories that are still not being listed?</p> <p><strong>Update</strong>: Heres what happens when I follow David Wolever suggestion </p> <pre><code>-bash-3.2$ ls torg -bash-3.2$ pwd /home/room1 -bash-3.2$ cd loourr -bash-3.2$ pwd /home/room1/loourr -bash-3.2$ cd .. -bash-3.2$ ls torg loourr -bash-3.2$ pwd /home/room1 </code></pre> <p>and when I mount </p> <pre><code>-bash-3.2$ mount /dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) /dev/sda6 on /scratch type ext3 (rw) /dev/sda3 on /var type ext3 (rw) /dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw) cartman.foo.bar:/home/room2/me on /home/room2/me type nfs (rw,addr=*.43) cartman.foo.bar:/home/room2/admin on /home/room2/admin type nfs (rw,addr=*.43) storage1.foo.bar:/storage/3 on /storage/3 type nfs (rw,nfsvers=3,tcp,intr,hard,addr=*.44) cartman.foo.bar:/home/room1/torg on /home/room1/torg type nfs (rw,addr=*.43) cartman.foo.bar:/home/room1/loourr on /home/room1/loourr type nfs (rw,addr=*.43) </code></pre> <p>Some notes: I replaced the server admins name with <code>admin</code>, my account name with <code>me</code>, the server extension with <code>foo.bar</code> and the part of addr= that was constant with <code>*</code> </p>
