That might not be enough. For me, sshd was listening on IPv6 ports, so loading the ipv6 module. To stop this, I uncommented the line "ListenAddress 0.0.0.0" which causes sshd to only listen on IPv4 ports. However, I still have a pretty severe slowdown when loading http://sfgate.com/. With kernel 2.4.25, it loads fine, but with 2.6.8 it takes a long time (30seconds?) Frank
