Hello, all.
I'm having a weird problem with my SL 5.3 login server. All of a sudden
(and without me changing anything) logins over SSH are very, very slow
-- up to a few minutes.
Once users are logged in, everything is fast. This doesn't happen when I
log in at the console, only over the network.
I tried restarting every network service, rebuilding the NIS directory,
and finally rebooting the server, and nothing has helped.
This is SL 5.3, Linux 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 #1 SMP x86_64, user info is
NIS (on the same server), and home directories are NFS-mounted, but NIS
and NFS should be okay since local logins are fast. I'd think a problem
with the NIC, but it's a nice Intel PRO/1000 and it's only the
authentication that's slow.
Any thoughts/suggestions are much appreciated... my users are getting
pretty unhappy :(
Thanks!
