I've collected the two command lines to make it easier to see the problem:

>   www1:/data/documents/upload/bill/invoices# ls -ld 00/00071/0007113* 
>   www1:/data/documents/upload/bill/invoices# ls -ld 00/00071/0007173* 

You are getting different results becasue you aren't actually running
the same command; Notice the difference between 7113 and 7173 at the
end?

The same appears to be the case in the other example:

>   www1:/data/documents/upload/bill/invoices# cd 00/00071/00071134 
>   -bash: cd: 00/00071/00071134: No such file or directory 

That directory was missing from the previous listing (71133 and 71135
were there), so this seems correct.

>   www1:/data/documents/upload/bill/invoices# ls -ld 00/00071/00071734 
>   drwxr-sr-x 2 webadmin webadmin 4096 2007-09-10 16:36 00/00071/00071734

This directory was there, so this also seems correct.

I may have overlooked something, but from the information you supplied
I can't see anything wrong with the results.
