Well, that looks like a pretty basic unix filesystem problem,
nothing to do with DirectoryStorage per se.
Some work at the shell should be informative. eg:


ls -ld /data/reposit/entdatabase/A/o0/00/00/00/00/00/26/E03/c
ls -ld /data/reposit/entdatabase/A/o0/00/00/00/00/00/26/E03/
ls -ld /data/reposit/entdatabase/A/o0/00/00/00/00/00/26/

etc. until you see what changed.

My guess is that at some point, the storage process (zope? zeo?
we don't know what you're running) was restarted with a different
effective user.  The user needs read/write permission for all
files, and read/write/execute permission for all directories,
under /data/reposit/entdatabase/ .  If that's the problem,
restart again as the correct user and you should be OK.
