:Hey I won't criticize you. I thought that was my dsl doing it but it does :not happen on my windows box. Whenever I start doing something that involves :traffic on my freebsd box it will not respond remotely for about 30 seconds. :Whats up with it?
Typically startup-delays in the 30-second range are due to broken DNS. Typically the host involved has trouble looking up its hostname or looking up its IP address (reverse DNS). It can take a while for the DNS request to timeout, hence the delay. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
