It's not the forward case that's the problem. The sshd daemon on the

a reverse-lookup. If the incoming IP hasn't got a DNS entry, the failing
DNS ip-lookup will time out in ~30s.
Thanks for responding. In all of my systems /etc/hosts is populated with
the name and LAN IP address of all other boxes. My gateway/firewall is a
5.4 Rel computer. I can ping that box "it's called gateway" with ping
gateway or ping 10.0.0.1 no problem.
What does "dig -x 10.0.0.1" on the ssh-server box give you? Looks like
you need to set up a internal DNS server to resolve these sort of
problems.
Cheers.

from my gateway box. The 24.25.227.64 is also found in resolv.conf
placed there by dhcpd from roadrunner.
