Long login times are often caused by insufficient entropy in the system.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with that phrase. Do you mean I need to define somewhere in the configuration or compile time /dev/random or /dev/urandom?
yes, /dev/random blocks when it runs out of entropy whereas /dev/urandom becomes not-so-random in that case. AFAIK it's still random enough for general purposes ...
I see the compile option in cyrus-sasl. Am I barking up the wrong tree?
No, it's the right one, provided that's really your problem.
