Hi I am a newbie to FreeBSD so I am trying to get things going...

1) When I perform a "ps" command I get a seg fault (core dumped)
I then get: "Nov 1 13:48:22 /kernel: pid 618 (ps), uid 1001:exited on
signal 11 (core dumped)"

Is there a reason I cannot run a "ps" command? Or why I would get a seg
fault?

Thanks,

-Alex
