Hi One regular problem with long logins is a problem with DNS or other nameserver problem. This is often seen on systems when telnetting in where it can take 2-3 mins to login and is due to the system not being able to reverse map the IP address of the system from where the user is trying to login from.
Are you using DNS, NIS or similar? Can you perform nslookup, ypcat etc on the system you are tryig to login to?
