Greg, Dave and Bert,
Thanks, it was the ident check. -R fixed it. Any brainstorms on why
this suddenly cropped up? And only for this guy? He was running fine
on Friday, came to work today and it had the delay. Over the weekend
I pulled out the paranoid setting (-p) in my script. Does running
with -p preclude running the ident check or something?
Thanks again,
Jon
