Are you able to do ls -al /home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper ? What about: find /home/phaley/Papers/2011/ArpitVel/SvnPaper -type f -exec cat {}\; > /dev/null ? To me it sounds as if your NAS has some disk problem which might be hardware related, or, if you are lucky, only a logical error caused by a clumsy uncontrolled boot. If you have a logical error it might be possible to fix with some kind of fsck depending upon what kind of NAS you have. regards Henrik
