I've got this weird problem, maybe somebody can help.

I run FreeBSD on a Pentium-133 on a local network along with my Mac. 
When I run my Mac telnet client and request a session on the FreeBSD 
box, the window comes up right away but there is usually a 20 or 30 
second delay before I get a login prompt.

In the past I've seen the problem where AFTER I enter my userid and 
password there is a long delay.  But that's generally caused by a DNS 
problem.  That's not the problem I'm having.

In my case, the login prompt itself takes a long time to come up.

Any suggestions?
