Ssh - delayed login

[Waldher, Travis R]

nope, that wasn't it, turns out it was this:
 
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=101157
 
The bug returned in the package shipped with ES3.0 and was fixed with
errata openssh-3.6.1p2-33.30.1
 
Not a DNS or IP issue.
 
Thanks,
Trvais

	Probably ssh is looking for the IP address of the machine on all
of the dns sources (hosts and the dns servers in /etc/resolv.conf) If
any are missing, it will wait for a timeout.

	OS: Redhat ES 3.0
	Package: openssh-server-3.6.1p2-18
	
	When I connect to this machine using Putty I'll instantly get
this:
	
	login as:
	
	I type in my user name OR even root and 2-10 seconds later I'll
get
	this:
	
	root at rpdssvr's password:
	
	Reverse lookups are instantaneous, so are forward DNS lookups.
	The question is, what could be causing the delay before the
password
	field shows up.  Our YDL machines aren't doing this, the
password field
	returns as fast as Putty will allow it.  It's version of ssh
server is:
	openssh-server-3.5p1-4
	
	Thanks,
