What were you trying to do?
ls various directories
What's wrong:
I inconsistantly see date stamps and owner fields that I know to
be bogus.
I get:

Ten minutes ago, on this same host, the v/j/ directory had owner and
date fields looking like those in the c/f directory. I also saw the
same thing from a solaris-athena machine, ibgps.
I don't know why it spontaniously cleared up; I had switched sets of
tokens a few times, and ls'd both directories from my SGI, so I did
so some more switching around, with no further change.
Then I remembered that I'd recently released user.v (what started this
was me mounting a restored homedir, and verifying that the ownership
was correct.)
I seem to get different behavior looking at the read-write or the
read-only.

I don't know what's up with those totals, either.
Oh, and on solaris, it matters not whether I use gnu ls or the
vendor one.
