lsnrctl status hangs forever

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Oracle 9.0.1 on Tru64 v51A.

'lsnrctl status' (services or whatever) hangs forever:

LSNRCTL for Compaq Tru64 UNIX: Version 9.0.1.0.0 - Production on 12-MAY-2002 19:49:45 Copyright (c) 1991, 2001, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

Connecting to (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=temipmap))

...... stuck forever ....

Obviously '/sbin/init.d/TeMIP_oracle_9.0.1 stop' hangs too.
