Please actually show us.  Use either of these two commands:

# namei -l /var/lib/rancid/routers/configs

# ls -ld / /var /var/lib /var/lib/rancid /var/lib/rancid/routers /var/lib/rancid/routers/configs

Run one of these commands in a terminal.  Then paste the entire block of
lines, from the shell prompt + command that you ran all the way down to
the next shell prompt, into the body of your email.

Here's an example:

unicorn:~$ namei -l /usr/local/bin/bash-5.2
f: /usr/local/bin/bash-5.2
drwxr-xr-x root root  /
drwxr-xr-x root root  usr
drwxr-sr-x root staff local
drwxr-sr-x root staff bin
lrwxrwxrwx root staff bash-5.2 -> bash-5.2.12
-rwxr-xr-x root staff   bash-5.2.12
unicorn:~$
