Yes, but the fact that you had at some point in the past accessed the directory doesn't mean that you currently have it accessed. I will have to leave it to Mary Ellen or Sue to comment on the server's view of directories. It may have more to do with the way CMS open/reads/closes a directory than anything else. Dunno.
