I was trying to login (via ssh) to a virtual server and it was taking ages (19
secs or so). Apparently there was something wrong with the way the sysadmin
had set up DNS. Once fixed I would be asked for a passwd with 1-2 seconds.
It could be that something like this is wrong with your server?
I'll check that out. Thanks guys.
