The system uses ppp dial-on-demand, and the local network has about 15 clients. When they send mail to port 25, there is no lag. When a system tries to connect to port 25 via. the modem, there is a 30 second lag before the system responds. The FreeBSD box is running FreeBSD 2.2.7 with sendmail 8.8.8. bind is running and has entries for all machines on the local network (10.0.0.0/24). I tried adding reverse entries for the machine connecting but it didn't help. Any advice would be much appreciated. Raymond Hunter...
