I've reproduced the problem on: Intrepid Minimal CD Install + ssh There's no apparent avahi installed or activated
In that configuration, "-o GSSAPIAuthentication=no" on the client command line has no effect, nor does setting it in the server's ssh_config file (though why that would change anything, I have no idea). The only way to suppress the delay seems to be to put UseDNS no in the server's /etc/ssh/sshd_config -- SSH with GSSAPIAuthentication option on SSH servers are very slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84899 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
