The server you're connecting to is doing reverse lookup on the client IP. If the DNS is shut down, it will block the connection until timeout has expired. A quick check if this is a DNS related problem might be to turn off the DNS support on the server you're trying to connect to. This can be done by editing /etc/host.conf on *BSD, or whatever appropriate for another OS. -- Ruslan Ermilov Sysadmin and DBA of the ru@ucb.crimea.ua United Commercial Bank +380.652.247.647 Simferopol, Ukraine http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve http://www.oracle.com Enabling The Information Age To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
