Are the permissions as listed above correct? If they are, the missing 
execution bit 'x' could be a large factor in your problem. To be able 
to cd into a directory is for that directory to be executable. 
Basically if you wish to be able to use directories for other than a 
"list" of files, don't disable the execution bit.
