I run RH 6.2.  I do standard, vanilla, out of the box, server installs.
Everything works fine, my network networks, my telnet telnets, BUT my
FTP hangs (well sort of).

The first time I FTP to a machine, I get:

Connected to <machine>

But then it takes about 60-90 sec. before I get the login prompt.  It
happens from Linux to linux, M$ to linux, and I suspect any other OS to 
my machines.

I've checked my nwswitch (or analogous on windows) on both ends of the
connection and I'm resolving (files, DNS in that order).

I have the same issues if I do it by IP instead of by name.

Just to emphasize:  It seems to happen the first time I FTP (for a while)
to a box.  Subsequent FTPs are fast for a while.  Later in the day, when
not used for a while, it happens again.

Anyone got any ideas???

Thanks
Jay
