On one of our FreeBSD server invoking top(1) blocks (as if had entered cat
instead of top). Something about the machine:

purpurea# uname -a
FreeBSD purpurea.rz.tu-clausthal.de 4.6-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD
4.6-RELEASE-p1 #4: Tue Jul 16 19:01:33 CEST 2002
root@purpurea.rz.tu-clausthal.de:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PURPUREA  i386

(This is an AMD double processor system (AMD Athlon XP 1600+). SMP is activated
in the kernel configuration. According to dmesg, the second CPU is enabled on
boot.)

The problem:

purpurea# top
^C
purpurea#

Using batch mode doesn't work either:

svss@purpurea:~$ top -b
^C
svss@purpurea:~$

The top binary seems to be ok:

svss@purpurea:~$ which top
/usr/bin/top
svss@purpurea:~$ ls -lF /usr/bin/top
-r-xr-sr-x  1 root  kmem  32872 Jul  3 20:06 /usr/bin/top*

E. g. NIS (client), NFS (client), Apache and PostgreSQL (the server) seem to work
well.

Can anybody tell what the problem is? Should I give more information
(and which)?

Stefan
