Top in Tru64

Hi all. Anyone know what permissions or anything is needed to give users the privileges to see top statistics information ? I ask this because I have a user on which I execute top from and display just this info
Code:
load averages:  0.49,  0.47,  0.46                                                                                  10:11:01
0 processes:
CPU states: 12.7% user,  0.0% nice,  2.1% system, 85.0% idle
Memory: Real: 5638M/7964M act/tot  Virtual: 16384M use/tot  Free: 1614M

  PID USERNAME PRI NICE  SIZE   RES STATE   TIME    CPU COMMAND

It doesn't show me statistics about the processes (no matter if I try to hit 'n' to list 10 or 20, or whatever). However, I have the same exact system (just on 1885 alpha) on which I execute top and it displays this statistic. What I am missing ?

This is OSF1 V5.1 2650 alpha.

Thanks!

My gut reaction would be to compare what user groups the working and non-working users are in...

Yeah, first thing I did. They both belong to the same group. I believe tops reads /dev/kmem and /dev/mem and both groups are allowed to read these files.

Still no luck. Smilie
