This is said to be a fuse filesystem feature. See e.g. https://superuser.com/questions/169977/mount-point-permission-denied > dr-x------ 2 theuser users 0 Dec 31 1969 doc/ > Odd timestamp on /run/user/601/doc, Probably (time_t) 0 = 1 Jan 1970 UTC. In your timezone -0700 it's new year's eve 1969, 5 pm. The --time-style option of ls should be able show the integer time value. With: ls -l --time-style=+%s i'd expect something like: dr-x------ 2 theuser users 0 0 doc/ Have a nice day :) Thomas
