Check your nameserver and that your potato box is setup with the correct nameserver. When you try to rlogin the login attempt is logged along with information of where you were trying to login from - instead of just logging the ip number an attempt is made to lookup the name. The lookup times out after about a minute and then you can log in... Happy hacking, /Gandalf
