you can try 'truss -p <myProcPID>' and guesstimate where it might be stuck - look into 'man truss' for details.

Hi,
whenever I am giving a 'ls' command system is going into infinite loop displaying the current home directory.
There is no separate shell script/file with ls name anywhere in the system.
I am using Solaris 10.
Any help / guidance in solving this problem is highly appreciated.

sotruss
sotruss(1) User Commands sotruss(1)
NAME
sotruss - trace shared library procedure calls
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/sotruss [-f] [-F bindfromlist] [-T bindtolist] [-o outputfile] executable [ executable arguments...]
DESCRIPTION
sotruss executes the specified command and produces a trace of the library calls that it performs. Each line of the trace output reports
what bindings are occurring between dynamic objects as each procedure call is executed. sotruss traces all of the procedure calls that
occur between dynamic objects via the Procedure Linkage Table, so only those procedure calls which are bound via the Procedure Linkage Ta-
ble will be traced. See Linker and Libraries Guide
OPTIONS
-F bindfromlist A colon-separated list of libraries that are to be traced.
Only calls from these libraries will be traced. The default is to trace calls from the main executable only.
-T bindtolist A colon-separated list of libraries that are to be traced. Only calls to these libraries will be traced.
The default is to trace all calls.
-o outputfile sotruss output will be directed to the outputfile. If this option is combined with the -f option then the pid of
the executing program will be placed at the end of the filename. By default sotruss output is placed on stderr.
-f Follow all children created by fork() and print truss output on each child process. This option will also cause
a pid to be output on each truss output line.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: An example of sotruss.
A simple example shows the tracing of a simple ls command:
% sotruss ls | more
