Dear All

I have recently installed dragonflybsd. Configs and installations seem to be going well, apart from two strange behaviours, possibly linked. If I'm connected to the internet everything is fine but, if I'm not:

(a) during boot, the machine stops at

    Starting sshd

I leave it for 5 minutes, but no progress. If I ctrl-c, it finishes the rest of the boot (presumably abandoning start sshd).

(b) Starting X without an internet connection is very slow, but does eventually get through. e.g.:

    > startx

    xauth: file /home/ivan/.serverauth.812 does not exist
    ... wait 2 mins ...

xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "dfly.llaisdy.com.2" in "list" command
    ... wait 1 min ...

    - into X!

Please could someone explain why these things happen, and how I can make the computer easier to use when I don't have an internet connection.

With thanks and best wishes

Ivan
