I've been reading this thread with quite some interest as I have a similar problem albeit with different applications.... I guess it's time for me to say something. I've been experiencing problems with some people telnetting into my system. Many people don't have a problem, but others do.... The problem is that the telnet client says "connected"; however, there is no response from my system for 150 seconds - 2.5 minutes! Once the client finally gets the response, everything is fine from there. No more delays, no more problems. Putting the client IP/hostname into /etc/hosts resolves this problem; however, this is an impractical solution. Any ideas?
