seems like now that i installed nscd it just keeps looking at nscd over
and over. any ideas? my auth.log is only 36MB right now.
Several factors, and complementing what Jason said:
1. Do you have HOSTNAME_LOOKUP set in your configuration?
2. How long is your /etc/hosts.deny list?
(roughly one half of `wc -l /etc/hosts.deny`)
3. Do you know that python is a resource hog? CPU use is very high on all
python programs I use.
