Can anyone explain this:

/etc/namedb is a link to another directory, don't use the trailing
/ in the ls -ld. So, in this case, you need to add -follow to find.
there is nothing odd about the directories:
# ls -dl /etc/namedb/ /etc/ppp/
drwxr-xr-x 5 root wheel 512 Nov 13 17:35 /etc/namedb/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Feb 8 17:36 /etc/ppp/
All well & good; we'll assume the OP missed the fact that this is a
symlink. What seems interesting to me, though (and it's probably just
the fact that I'm a relative *Nix newb), why this?

Certainly doesn't *seem* to be mentioned in ls(1).

If you explain so clearly that nobody can misunderstand, somebody
will.
