I've had this problem before. You can keep DNS turned on if /etc/resolv.conf contains reachable nameservers. The DNS lookup timeout in sshd is very long

I posted a similiar problem on Sunday but didn't get any responses. I turned off DNS in the sshd_config file and the sshd time out problem went away for me as well. Actually I had to turn off dns lookup up for apache and proftpd as well because those services were running extremely slow or not responding.
If you've not made any modifications to your system, why would this happen?
