Listing Directory Contents Hangs For Up To A Minute

- Performing a long listing of a directory (
ls -l) hangs for up to a minute. - When the command finally completes, a group ownership of one or more items in the directory is shown as a group ID (GID) number instead of a name.
# cd /data/
# time ls -l
