Connected to fb42. Escape character is '^]'. It then waits quite a long while (about a minute) before printing: FreeBSD/i386 (fb42.cfcl.com) (ttyp0) login: OTOH, if I already have a telnet session open on fb42 (or have recently had a session open), a new session comes up with no delay. I wonder if this is some sort of DNS or other time-out and how I might track it down. -r P.S. Both machines are on a NATified LAN with controlled physical access, so telnet's (lack of) security is not an issue. -- -- http://www.cfcl.com/rdm email: rdm@cfcl.com phone: +1 650-873-7841 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
