Without search permission (what I prefer to call x permission as
applied to directories), you may be able to read the directory
(depends on read permission), but you cannot access any files under
that directory. A mode 444 directory is pretty much useless (except
to root), as all you can do is list the files you can't access.
The same applies to a mode 666 directory (you can't create files,
either). A mode 111 directory allows you to access the files and
directories in it (subject to their permissions) *IF* you can guess
their names.
Permissions like 755 or 750 or 700 or 777 are more normal for
directories. The octal digits 2, 3, 4, or 6 are fairly unusual in
directory permissions, and in my experience, it's usually a mistake
(although I'm not claiming there is absolutely NO use for these).
