I've recently setup a few new OpenBSD 4.7 servers inside vmware virtual
machines, and have noticed a weird behavior on some of them. When logging on
through SSH, the "login as" entry comes up immediately, but after I put in a
username and hit enter there is a very long delay before it will ask for or
let me input a password. I haven't timed it but conservative estimate would
be like 15-20 seconds. It can actually make the login process difficult,
because it only gives me a few seconds after the password entry finally
appears before it drops the connection. 

 

Any thoughts on why this might be happening? I've done some searching but
failed to find anything, and am not really sure where to even begin looking
at this problem.

 

Of the 3 boxes I setup, one works normally and 2 are experiencing this
problem. It happens every single time when connecting to either box (on
different vmware hosts esxi hosts). The only configuration done after the
fresh install is to configure the networking (ip, gateway, dns).
