ls hangs on a directory

Running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.1 (Tikanga) 2.6.18-53.el5

Trying to do an 'ls' of a sub-directory and the prompt never returns. Same problem running a find command as well.

I have done an fsck on the file system (no problems) and can view other sub-directories on this file system.

I can run an strace ls or and ltrace ls and get a response.

I suspect there are too many files in the sub-directory but could use some help.

thanks,

Jon
