You have two possible fixes I am aware of, one of them is to configure sshd not to use IPv6, the other is to disable multicast DNS. And what actually happens in your strace... sshd asks for IPv6 address first (default behavior). It tries absolute name first (exactly as you describe), unfortunately gets weird answer (with authoritative name server only). So it tries to add suffixes... and it goes still the same. Then it tries multicast and waits till the timeout (this is the slowest thing). And then, finally (it should be somewhere in deleted strace lines) asks for IPv4 address and gets answer. When you strike similar problem next time, it will help to add raw packet data from tcpdump, decoding them from strace is a bit time consuming ;) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
