When I try to Telnet to my FreeBSD box, it makes the connection, but has a very long delay before it brings up the "login:" I have not made any changes in my configuration before this started doing this. The only way I am able to keep this delay from happening is by removing the computer I am trying to log in from, from the /etc/hosts file. I have no problem logging in from any other terminal that is not in the /etc/hosts file, or when I change the terminal I try to log in from normally, to a different IP from which it is suppose to be. If someone could help me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks Dan
