Are any Windows Servers involved? MS just rolled out a bunch of RPC patches that disconnected all of our zLinux and AIX SAMBA servers from the network; messed up something with WINS / DNS. We had to add the servers back to the domains, even the ones that were on separate SAMBA domains, but that were accessing the windows DNS boxes.

I've seen ssh be really slow while it tries to do a lookup on the connecting IP if there's a nameserver timeout. For the Record: This process has worked for nearly a year w/o any incident. Yesterday was the first noted failure and there were two. As my luck is running today, the linux admin is out today. I'll need to verify the DNS issue w/him tomorrow. I'm fairly confident DNS issues are not the culprit here. 20+ other guests did not experience a similar issue. Thanks for the thought, but I can't verify yes or not until tomorrow.
